Rice has been in the media regularly recently, with the 19-year-old potentially making the switching alliances to England from Ireland.

He's yet to start a game for Manuel Pellegrini's side this season, after starting 15 times in his breakthrough season.

Rice's current contract is set to expire in the summer and this has attracted Arsenal, who believe they have a chance of getting the Ireland international on the cheap.

The Hammers offered Rice a new contract, but the youngster rejected the offer and this alerted Arsenal.

The bookmakers currently have his most likely destination to be Arsenal's North London rivals, Tottenham.
