Journalist believes Declan Rice is ‘everything’ EPL rivals need

West Ham midfielder Declan Rice is often touted with a big-money move away from the London Stadium. 

Prior to the recent upturn in fortunes at the club, it was widely anticipated that 22-year-old would ultimately leave east London for pastures new. 

However, despite continued links to the perceived elite sides in the Premier League, progress made under David Moyes could stave off potential suitors. 

One of those clubs linked with a move for the England and Irons’ star is Manchester United. 

Signings such as Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and even Cristiano Ronaldo haven’t cured the apparent ailment in the centre of the park at Old Trafford and results have reflected the ongoing issue. 

Football journalist Liam Canning took to Twitter having watched Rice steer the Hammers to a 3-2 victory over Liverpool and was adamant the Englishman could transform fortunes in Manchester. 

This season Rice has earned the outstanding average Sofascore rating of 7.42 from 11 Premier League outings. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

There are very few, if any, sides in world football that Rice wouldn’t improve right now. 

Performing at the very top of his game regardless of opposition, the £63million valued man is a driving force behind the success at West Ham and could guide the club to something remarkable. 

Now all the club needs is the 27-cap Englishman to put pen to paper and commit himself to the Irons long-term. 

matchday.
