‘Rice isn’t anywhere near a £100m player!’ – Ex-West Ham star not convinced by Man Utd talk

The England international midfielder continues to be talked about as a Red Devils target, but Dean Ashton believes he should bide his time in London

Declan Rice is not “anywhere near a £100 million player”, says former West Ham striker Dean Ashton, with the England international urged to bide his time amid ongoing talk of interest from Manchester United.

Goal has confirmed that United are considering a move for the 20-year-old holding midfielder ahead of next season.

He would certainly fit the young, home-grown mould now being favoured at Old Trafford under the guidance of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
