West Ham will refuse to sell Declan Rice this summer after the midfielder turned down a staggering new eight-year deal worth £200,0000-a-week.
The England star, rated at £150million by his club, drove the Hammers to the semi-finals of the Europa League this season and the brink of the top six for the second season in a row. Rice has so far rejected three new deals with the Hammers who are keen to keep him from the clutches of the Premier League's biggest clubs this summer.
But West Ham are confident no club will match their monster asking price for Rice, who has two years left on his contract with an option for a further year. Set against that, Rice's camp still believe he could get between £300k-400k-a-week and Champions League football at one of the bigger clubs.
