Manchester City star Jack Grealish likes West Ham video online amid Declan Rice links
Manchester City and England star Jack Grealish may have just dropped a hint as the race for Declan Rice’s signature heats up.
Last season’s treble-winners have reportedly entered the race to sign Rice alongside Arsenal with the Gunners having seen two bids so far rejected.
Di Marizio posted on Twitter (22 June) that Manchester City were confident of reaching an agreement with West Ham and a post liked by Grealish has now added fuel to the fire.
A fan jokingly posted a one-minute and 40-second long video on Twitter where the similarities between the two clubs are pointed out while the song ‘We Go Together’ plays in the background.
And eagle-eyed fans have spotted that Grealish has liked this tweet which is a major hint as to where he believes his England team-mate will be playing his club football next year.

This is a certainly interesting development, however not something to read too much into.
Fans of Manchester City shouldn’t get carried away with this news just as much as Arsenal fans shouldn’t be disappointed. It is likely that Grealish does not know what is going on when it comes to the club’s race for Rice unless the West Ham captain himself has told the 27-year-old something.
That seems unlikely though and with the comedic and fun nature of Grealish, demonstrated by his recent wild celebrations following Manchester City’s Champions League victory, this little hint should be taken with a pinch of salt.
West Ham fans know that Rice will probably be off this summer, that is looking like a certainty now, however many people involved with the deal will surely be getting frustrated over how long it is taking.
Arsenal looked favourites, but with City now reportedly in the race, who knows where Rice’s future lies? Perhaps Grealish.
