West Ham midfielder Declan Rice is a Chelsea target ahead of the summer transfer window, with Thomas Tuchel looking to sign a midfielder for next season.
Rice has been tipped to move away from West Ham for the last 18 months, with the 22-year-old's stock rising seemingly with each passing month, and is now considered one of the Premier League's best midfielders. football.london understands that Chelsea are long-term admirers of Rice, who is a name on their midfield shortlist alongside Monaco's Aurelien Tchouameni.
However, football.london also understands that as far as The Hammers are concerned, nothing has changed and Rice is not for sale at any price.
