Arsenal confident about extending Declan Rice’s contract
Arsenal are making progress in negotiations to extend Declan Rice’s contract. Having joined from West Ham in 2023, the England midfielder quickly established himself as one of the London club’s key players.
Talks considered positive
According to CaughtOffside, Arsenal and Declan Rice’s representatives have made progress in their discussions over a contract extension. No final agreement has yet been reached, but the various parties are reportedly optimistic about the possibility of reaching a full agreement soon. Rice is currently under contract with the Gunners until the summer of 2028.
Since arriving in London, the England international has become a major part of Arsenal’s setup. Last season, he played 55 matches in all competitions, scoring five goals and providing nine assists. The 27-year-old midfielder also began the 2026-2027 season with two assists in seven appearances for Arsenal. Talks are therefore expected to continue in the coming weeks, with Arsenal aiming to further secure the future of their midfielder.
