West Ham United manager David Moyes says a “bargain” price tag of £100m for Declan Rice is no longer available as the midfielder continues to draw links with Manchester United and Chelsea.
The 22-year-old vice-captain has continued to go from strength to strength at the London Stadium since bursting onto the scene, with the midfield dynamo now the club’s matchday skipper in the absence of an ageing Mark Noble, a fully-fledged England international, and Moyes’ most important player.
Rice has been hailed for his consistency, maturity and athleticism, three traits which galvanised the Hammers last campaign and ensured they finished sixth in the Premier League table and secured Europa League football as a result, with the club so far winning all three of their group-stage games without conceding.
