West Ham United captain Declan Rice has addressed talk of a summer transfer amid links to the likes of Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United
West Ham United captain Declan Rice has spoken out on his future amid talk of a potential transfer to Arsenal or Bayern Munich.
Asked if defeating the Italian side would be the perfect way to sign off on his time with David Moyes' side, Rice told the Evening Standard: “I’ve not really focused on any of that, to be honest. My main focus this season, from the World Cup onwards, has been getting us out of a relegation battle and, of course, having one eye on winning this trophy.
“Everything else is just noise and speculation. Obviously, I can’t help that, it comes with playing. But my main focus is playing for West Ham and winning this final.
"My heart’s set on that, doing it for the club, for my family, for the fans and that’s my only focus. I want to make them all very happy and my focus is on doing that.”
