Chelsea, Man Utd target Rice returns for West Ham preseason training

Declan Rice is prepared to stay with West Ham United this season.

The Telegraph says Rice has returned to training with West Ham United for their pre-season ahead of a new campaign and has made no demands to leave the club this summer.

Rice's future is uncertain at the Hammers having reportedly turned down two contract offers amid interest from Chelsea.

But fresh from a break after featuring in England's run to the Euro 2020 final, Rice is still prepared to give his all to the east London outfit and is not looking to force through a transfer.

Chelsea and Manchester United have been among the leading clubs looking to sign the defensive midfielder who was a key part of the Three Lions' best major tournament display since 1966 at the European Championship before ultimately losing the final on penalty kicks to Italy at Wembley.
