Rumours are swirling around Declan Rice, with Real Madrid reportedly showing interest in the midfielder currently plying his trade at Arsenal. With both teams looking to strengthen their squads, the move could have a massive impact on their seasons going forward. Negotiations are still active, and with no other teams linked, Real Madrid appear to have a clear path to completing the deal. So far this season, Real Madrid are steady at both ends (2.36 goals scored per game, 0.91 goals conceded per game). The role for Declan Rice would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Arsenal continue to be linked with Yan Diomande, Ayyoub Bouaddi and Fabian Ruiz while Real Madrid are also rumoured to be tracking Virgil van Dijk, Etta Eyong and Kephren Thuram Ulien.
