Rice staying at West Ham?

“Everything’s good.

“I know there’s speculation but during the season I signed a new five-year contract with West Ham, so my focus is fully on playing for West Ham.

“I have a great connection with the fans. The fans love me, I love them, and that’s the way it is at the moment. I’m not thinking about anything else.”

Those are the words of West Ham United star Declan Rice, who has cleared the air regarding his future with the club. Both Manchester United and Manchester City have been linked with a move for the youngster, but up to this point, there’s been a lot of uncertainty regarding whether or not he actually wants to leave. If this report is to be believed, then Rice could actually wind up staying in East London after all.

Either way, Hammers fans should treasure every minute they have with him left on the books.
