Five face competition from four other teams for Declan Rice

The race for West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice is heating up as Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United are all reportedly in the running to sign the talented player.

According to Football Insider, the five English giants are all keen to secure the services of the 24-year-old, who has established himself as one of the best young talents in the Premier League.

Declan Rice has been a key player for West Ham United since breaking into the first team in 2017. He has been a standout performer in the heart of their midfield. Rice has also been a regular in the England national team.

The interest from top English clubs is a testament to Rice’s quality and potential. Each of these clubs has a rich history and a strong tradition of success, and they are all looking to add top talent to their rosters as they look to compete for trophies and titles in the years to come.

Liverpool are one of the clubs in desperate need of a midfield revamp and Bellingham would be the most desirable option. He can define a decade at Anfield should he come here and it would be an unbelievable signing.

The presence of other Premier League clubs will not make this signing one bit easy. Each club on the list will try their best to sign arguably the biggest English talent going around and Liverpool will have to be on top of their game.
