‘Put down £100m’ and bring brilliant midfielder to Chelsea -Boehly informed
Blues legend Frank Leboeuf has encouraged Chelsea to splash the cash and try to sign West Ham star Declan Rice
Rice is a player that has developed into a world class holding midfielder during his time with the Hammers – but many now feel that it is the right time for him to test himself at a Champions League club
Chelsea are the clear favourites to try and get a deal done and have been linked with a move for the player for the last couple of windows – but have not be able to get any sort of transfer deal done
However – Blues legend Leboeuf has opened up and told Chelsea that they need to sign Declan Rice
Leboeuf said: “Otherwise the only other position I think Chelsea need to strengthen is central midfield as a potential replacement for Kante.
“Kante is out for about 4 months and while Jorginho is a great player he is not defensively minded. Kovacic is a good player and he does his job well but he needs a partner.
“Declan Rice is the one for me. It would be very, very interesting if Kante leaves. I would love to see them {‘} and get Rice from West Ham.
“I get goosebumps thinking of Mason Mount and Declan Rice playing together at Chelsea because they are academy graduates and that’s what fans want to see. Man Utd are missing the point with their transfer policy of just buying big stars.
“They need to remember the Neville brothers, Beckham, Scholes, Giggs etc all came through the system and providing the backbone of the greatest period in the club’s history.
“The biggest figure in Chelsea’s recent history is John Terry, who OK started at West Ham but he’s Chelsea through and through and came through the academy like Mason Mount.
“Declan Rice belongs to Chelsea, like Conor Gallagher.”
