Mark Noble hopes Declan Rice will commit his future to West Ham as he believes the youngster will 'get much better with experience'...but admits 'you never know' when top clubs are swarming

Mark Noble hopes Declan Rice will remain at West Ham United for the foreseeable future, but has admitted that 'you never know' what will happen during a transfer window.

Since his West Ham debut in 2017, Rice has developed into a reliable, athletic and dominant central midfielder, but Noble is adamant the 21-year-old will get 'much better with experience'.

As a result, Rice – who has featured 16 times for the Hammers this season – has acquired the interest of both Chelsea and Manchester United and has been linked with a move away from the London Stadium in January.
