VIDEO: Arteta on Declan Rice’s reception at West Ham

Arsenal face West Ham next matchday in the Premier League, and all eyes are on Declan Rice's return to his former home.

The England midfielder, who left the Hammers to join Arsenal, has been a key player for the Gunners this season.

Mikel Arteta has spoken about the possible reception Rice will receive at his former stadium and how difficult it is always to return to the team you played.

"I always say that when you come back, that is very difficult because the opponents are focussed on giving support to their own team," said the Gunners boss.
