Arsenal transfer target Declan Rice was spotted dancing in a celebratory mood at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night - but not in the way Gunners supporters might hope.
The West Ham star has been linked with a move to Arsenal this summer, with The Times claiming in January that the England international is the club's top target.
Hammers boss David Moyes has expressed hope that Rice will remain at the London Stadium, particularly with the club still aiming to qualify for next season's Europa League via winning the Europa Conference League.

If the midfielder does depart, however, Arsenal appear to be the frontrunners to secure his signature.
But Rice has proven that his allegiance remains fully with the Hammers - and was shown on TikTok celebrating a famous 5-1 victory for the club's youth side over none other than Jack Wilshere's Arsenal in the final of the FA Youth Cup.
Rice spotted celebrating after Arsenal defeat
Rice was present to watch West Ham's U18 side secure a huge win - having captained the Hammers at academy level prior to his ascent to the first team.

He watched Kevin Keen's side smash in five goals at the Emirates, including an incredible 35-yard lob from winger Gideon Kodua.
It was a disappointing result for the young Gunners side, who were looking to win the trophy for the first time in 14 years.
But it was West Ham who emerged as victors, lifting the FA Youth Cup for the first time since 1999, when Joe Cole and Michael Carrick were both in the starting XI.
Rice, who was just months old when that victory occurred, was in prime position in the Hammers dressing room after their latest success to dance and celebrate with the youth team.

Manager Keen, who twice got promoted to the First Division with West Ham as a player, said he felt 'as proud as I have ever been' after the win, before adding: "It is an incredible moment for the academy and the club."
