Declan Rice admits his “heart is set” on captaining West Ham to European glory after the agony of missing out with England in the Euros.
Rice learned the hard way the painfully fine margins in finals as the Three Lions lost EURO 2020 at Wembley to Italy on penalties two years ago. But Rice has no intention of letting the Europa Conference League final end up in Italian hands too when the Hammers face Fiorentina on June 7 in Prague.
Rice, when asked if he had dreamed of lifting the trophy, admitted: “Yeah, all of us have thought about it. The journey we have been on, now we are one game away from lifting something for West Ham. It will go down in history.
