da 888casino： TalkSPORT pundit Jason Cundy believes that Declan Rice could leave West Ham United this summer.
The former Chelsea defender insists that the new England international, who made his debut for the Three Lions last week in the 5-0 Euro 2020 qualifying victory over the Czech Republic, is destined for a move to an elite club.
What’s the word?
Rice has enjoyed a fine season this term, becoming a key player under manager Manuel Pellegrini.
The 20-year-old has played 32 times in all competitions, scoring twice and laying on one assist. His first goal came after a heroic display in a 1-0 win over Arsenal – that strike was also his maiden goal for the club.
He has been ever-present in the Premier League since September, when he was benched for a 1-0 loss to Wolves.
His first international appearance against the Czech Republic was followed by his first start on Monday, in a thumping 5-1 defeat of Montenegro.
And Cundy insists that he will eventually leave east London for pastures new.
He said: “There are bigger and better things on the horizon for him.
“Whether it happens this year, or whether it happens next year, it’s going to happen. That’s one thing the West Ham fans know and will have to accept.
“He will not end his playing days at West Ham. It’s inevitable that Declan Rice will go on and play for one of the biggest clubs in the country.”
Ambition?
Why exactly would Rice need to move on?
For now, he is playing consistently for West Ham, has worked his way into the England starting XI and is surely a shoo-in to be named in Gareth Southgate’s squad for Euro 2020, should the Three Lions qualify.
A move to the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United or even Tottenham Hotspur may not pan out.
Jack Rodwell is a prime example; having broken through at Everton, he moved to City and struggled to make the grade before a move to Sunderland. That went so poorly his contract was eventually cancelled.
Rice had better be wary of history repeating itself. He is well on his way to becoming a hero at West Ham.
He should think twice before throwing that away at this early stage of his career.
