West Ham star Declan Rice should be fit to face Wolves
West Ham star Declan Rice should be fit to face Wolves on Saturday, according to a new report.
Claret & Hugh claim that the 22-year-old has recovered from the virus that ruled him out of international duty for England.
They claim that Rice had been suffering from the illness before the Hammers played Liverpool, but they reached an agreement with the Three Lions for him to miss this international break.
However, he will be raring to go for the game on Saturday, which is great to hear, and we can’t wait to watch another Rice masterclass.
Big news for the Irons.
Rice has been in immaculate form so far this season for both club and country, but you would think a little rest could help him even more.
In the Premier League, he has registered three assists and a goal as well as averaging an incredible 7.46 WhoScored rating.
The England man was brilliant last season, but he has moved onto new levels this season and is arguably one of if not the best midfielder in the league at the moment and has been described as “world-class” by David Hunt [Evening Standard].
If he were to miss the game on Saturday, you would have to say that David Moyes would be left without his best player.
Therefore, this update is great news, and we can’t wait to see Rice fully refreshed and back in that Hammers midfield.
Wolves won’t know what has hit them if Rice continues this ridiculous vein of form.
So, we will have to wait and see, but it seems likely that Rice will play on Saturday, which is great news.
In other West Ham news, the Irons have made contact with Jesse Lingard’s agents about a possible January move.
