Chelsea now free to wrap up deal after £120m valued star reaches summer agreement
West Ham have a gentleman’s agreement with CHELSEA target Declan Rice that he can leave this summer.
Over the past few seasons – Declan Rice has developed into one of the best midfielders in the Premier League and a man that could go on to become one of the best in the world.
But so far the Hammers have not allowed him to leave – despite all the speculation and all the rumours that he is ready to depart – as they are hoping that he snubs a move to Arsenal or CHELSEA .
However – according to reports on the Metro – West Ham have now reached an agreement with Rice to allow him to leave the club at the end of the season – West Ham will allow Rice to leave if they receive an offer worth £120m from a Champions League club.
The Hammers would also accept £100m plus a player for the England midfielder.
Rice rejected the offer of a new £200,000-a-week contract 12 months ago, and the money raised from selling the captain, plus additional funds, will be made available to strengthen the squad.
Manager David Moyes recently admitted that they are planning for life without the midfielder – he said: ‘He would be missed by any club, so any club who didn’t have him would miss him and we certainly would, partly because he is a big part.
