West Ham midfielder Declan Rice isn't getting carried away with fresh transfer interest.

The 23-year-old has stated that it's important not to get carried away with the interest in him.

He told Sky Sports: "Playing well comes with speculation. I've obviously had two or three top seasons playing with West Ham and the top clubs around the country are always going to be watching.

"It's not just for me, I think it's the same for every player.

"I think it's important not to get too carried away with all that. Obviously we've had a good season here with West Ham.

"There's been big games here to play so I feel like my focus has always been on that. I feel like if I've thought about other things I'd get carried away and that wouldn't be fair on the team or the manager."
