Manchester United are reportedly willing to break their transfer record to secure the signing of West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice.

Manchester United are reportedly prepared to pay in excess of £90m to sign West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice.

The Premier League giants are expected to undergo an overhaul of their squad in the summer, helped by a number of players being out of contract.

Whoever replaces interim manager Ralf Rangnick, likely to be Erik ten Hag, may focus on signing at least two new central midfielders.

According to 90 min, United are determined for one of those players to be Rice, despite Hammers boss David Moyes suggesting that the England international is worth £150m.

The report claims that United are prepared to break the club-record £89.3m that they shelled out on Paul Pogba back in 2016.

The East London outfit would allegedly consider a sale should they be presented with a proposal worth £120m, a figure which may also tempt the likes of Manchester City and Chelsea.

With West Ham possessing the option of extending Rice's contract by 12 months, the academy graduate effectively has just over three years remaining on his existing deal.
