Skynews has been reported that if city's bid already rejected by westham. Finally, arsenal has not become the only victim from westham. Manchester city shall have put more value compared to the arsenal.
Westham will not let rice go out without 100m on westham's hand. City must pay such amount to get him from westham as soon as possible.

Manchester City's £90m bid has been turned down by West Ham; Premier League champions had offered £80m up front, plus £10m in add-ons; Arsenal remain in talks with West Ham after two club-record bids were rejected; Hammers are expecting a third bid from the Gunners

I hope city will try to increase its bid as soon as possible. That kind of strategy won't work toward a club that was seeking huge amounts of money.

West Ham is insisting on £100m for Declan Rice shows that English players are absolutely overpriced the club wanted to cash out from his sale, Man City offered £80m with £70m instant payment yet that offer was rejected by West Ham the offer is even better than that of Arsenal who offered £75m payment in four instalments, though Arsenal is will launch their third bid any moment from now personally I think whichever club between Arsenal and Man City that eventually sign him must have had taken a gamble because he didn't worth that value beside there are quality and better midfielders whose worth is less that of Declan Rice yet can offer better or equal service on the field of play.

I think FA needs to step in to stop this hyping been placed on English players because it is becoming something else, how can West Ham United be demanding for a £100 for a player like Declan Rice that's crazy and the next thing you see after a club have paid that amount now he won't be as good as he was when playing for west Ham United after paying that huge amount. Best wishes for the them that will end up paying that amount but I think Arsenal and Manchester city should not pay such high amount because Rice is not worth that amount right now regardless of his form last season. £80 is ok I think Manchester city has over priced him already because in my opinion Rice shouldn't be above £60 despite his form. Now since Arsenal is preparing a third bid for him, I think Arteta may likely secure his signature because he's going to have more playing time in Arsenal than Manchester city but Arsenal won't pay the £100 that West Ham United is demanding unless they will have a clause to his contract.
