David Moyes reveals West Ham will not entertain any offer for Declan Rice
West Ham manager David Moyes has reiterated his stance that star midfielder Declan Rice is not for sale in the ongoing transfer window.
The England international has been once again linked with a move away from the London Stadium ahead of the start of next season.
Moyes was quoted in a report by Daily Mail where he insisted that there has been no concrete offer for the star midfielder and the club is not open to selling the player as well.
“No bids [for Rice],” he said. “We wouldn’t be taking any, anyway. We’ve said all along he’s not for sale.”
There is a reason why Declan Rice is one of the most talked-about midfielders in the Premier League today.
It almost feels like every club wants the England international at their club but the hefty price tag means that only a few clubs would have the capacity to seal this deal.
The West Ham midfielder is the heartbeat of the London Stadium. Every good and bad result happening with West Ham goes around Rice, who is currently the focal point of this team.
Even though he tends to play as a defensive midfielder, he can also play as a central midfielder according to his manager’s demands.
For the England national team, the midfielder tends to play in a pivot with Kalvin Phillips which makes the Three Lions defensively solid.
After already losing Mark Noble who has retired from professional football, it is important that Moyes will keep his word and will not let Rice leave the club in the near future.
