If you look at some of the rumors, there are indeed several big teams eyeing Declan Rice, but I see that Arsenal and Man City don't seem to be asking too much to pay Declan Rice because there are other players they are after. but for such Bayern Munich there is little possibility.
but I was just wondering at his age and at such a high price whether any team would really want to buy him. well, I know Declan Rice has a very good performance because as I said before that a lot of experience but his current age doesn't have a guarantee to come out with a stronger performance.

Seems like you are not as updated with what's going around Declan Rice in transfer market. Arsenal and City were interested in Rice and both clubs made huge bids. Bayern never placed a bid considering his high price tag but they were for sure interested in him. Declan Rice plays very well as holding midfielder and with Xhaka and Partey near to leave Arsenal, it was important for us to sign a holding midfielder. Now Xhaka played as more of an aggressive type midfielder in Arsenal's formation kinda like what Gundogan in City's formation last season. Now I am not sure what kind of role is Arteta planning here for Rice here. I think he is replacement for Xhaka and will he be given a more aggressive role like Xhaka used to have or just like a normal DM which is what his strong role as I have seen till now. So I feel his performance will lot depend on how the DM roles will be distributed by Arteta.
