West Ham on Saturday morning, announced they have agreed a deal for Declan Rice to leave the club.
Rice is expected to be confirmed as an Arsenal player imminently.
Arsenal, who are not mentioned in West Ham’s statement, are yet to announce the arrival of Rice for £105m – a record fee between two British clubs.
Rice posted a farewell message on Instagram: “I can’t believe an incredible 10 years has come to an end. West Ham has been a massive part of my life on and off the pitch. Saying goodbye is never easy.
“I’ve had some unbelievable highs, none higher than that night in Prague. I’ve also grown a lot as a person, a player and as a captain.
“From the very first moment I captained the side, under the guidance of Nobes [Mark Noble], I have felt nothing other than pride & passion. As a captain, delivering that European trophy was the icing on the cake.
“My connection with the fans means everything to me and my family. You have treated us like one of your own since the day I arrived. Thank you.
“Everyone knows how special West Ham is as a club that goes for all managers, coaches, back room staff and of course, my team mates.
“Thank you for some amazing memories and some of the best days of my life.
“Love you all. Love Dec.”
