Arsenal‘s high profile pursuit of Declan Rice could be scuppered due to finances.
The Gunners are the team with the strongest interest in the West Ham midfielder.
Rice, who won the Europa Conference League with the Hammers this week, wants to leave for a club in the Champions League.
Per The Times, Arsenal owe about ?150 million on past transfers due to the way those deals were structured.
The exact figure may be even higher, as it will have to include deals done in the past two transfer windows.
Arsenal will have money to spend, but such debt means that Mikel Arteta may have to prioritize and go for less expensive targets.
