Declan Rice rejects new contract and is 'open' to move with Man Utd and Chelsea keen

Manchester United and Chelsea target Declan Rice is 'open' to a transfer after rebuffing a new contract offer from West Ham - but a summer move remains unlikely.

Both United and Chelsea have been persistently linked with a move for the 23-year-old, who has evolved into a key player for Gareth Southgate's England team over the past 18 months. Rice has now racked up 28 caps for the senior side and played a pivotal role in England's historic run to the Euro 2020 final last year.

And his stock has only risen further in the Premier League this year with the Hammers, who have been chasing an unlikely top-four finish for the majority of the campaign. The midfielder has also been the driving force behind West Ham's fairytale run in the Europa League, with the Londoners set for a semi-final showdown with Eintracht Frankfurt next week.
