John Terry sends Transfer message to West Ham star

Former Chelsea star John Terry has sent transfer message to West Ham star Declan Rice.

Rice, who was an academy player at Stamford Bridge has been linked with a return to the club following his improved performance with the Hammers.

Terry in a statement said he would love to see Rice move back to Stamford Bridge.

But the Blues will be in for competition from Man Utd who are also interested in him as well as West Ham who would want him to remain at the club.

Asked if he might give Rice a little push about returning to Chelsea, Terry told Astro SuperSport: “I’m going to get in trouble here for what I say!

“You know what, Dec obviously loves Chelsea – I think everyone knows that.

“I think the rejection he had from Chelsea has really helped his career, actually. What he’s done at West Ham is pretty much incredible.

“We saw in the FA Cup [against Kidderminster Harriers in February] when he came on and scored, and again grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck.

“I think from Dec’s side of things, I think he has given everything to West Ham.

“And for me, looking from the outside, unless West Ham go and make a big statement in the summer and go and spend £100million plus and say, “We want to keep Dec and we want to bring in top players like you”, then I think he’s got a decision to make.

“I think if West Ham go and spend huge amounts of money, bring in top players, then I think it’s difficult for him to walk away.”

Asked if Rice would be a great addition to the current Chelsea team, Terry simply nodded his head in agreement and replied: “Incredible.”
