West Ham hike up price for Man Utd target Rice

West Ham have further hiked up their price for Declan Rice.

The Times says Hammers boss David Moyes previously claimed Rice was worth 'humongous money' - upwards of the £100m mark.

But now that price-tag has shot up to more than £120m.

Although it's also claimed 23-year-old Rice has put talks over his future at West Ham on hold until the summer.

The England star is said to be keen to assess his options come the end of the campaign.

A potential move at that figure would comfortably make him the most expensive Premier League signing of all time - ahead of Three Lions colleague Jack Grealish.

Rice's current deal runs out in the summer of 2024, but the Londoners have the option to extend for a further year.

Both Manchester United and Manchester City have been linked with a move for Rice in the past.
