Chelsea willing to wait for West Ham captain Rice

West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice has only committed to staying at the club until the summer.

The Hammers and England midfielder, who is wanted by Chelsea and wants to join the West London club, is in hot demand from other teams as well.

Per football.london, Rice is the no.1 target for Chelsea to solve their midfield issues in the summer.

It may take a £100 million deal to secure his signature, with the source suggesting Chelsea will do everything to make it happen.

During the summer, talkSPORT had stated that Rice had a gentlemen's agreement with West Ham to remain for one more season before moving on.

Manchester United have also been linked to Rice in the past.
