Jack Wilshere is delighted to see West Ham teammate Declan Rice shining for England.

Rice enjoyed back-to-back victories with England over the past week.

Wilshere told whufc.com: “I thought about texting him the other day, before Friday, but I decided not to, because there will have been so many people messaging him.

“I know what it is like when you're preparing for your England debut. He will have just wanted to focus on the game.

“I'm really happy for him that he got some game time, because I believe he is the best player in his position in the country right now. He has done us proud, his family proud, and himself proud. I'm happy for him."
