West Ham boss David Moyes has revealed there’s no chance of West Ham captain Declan Rice leaving West Ham in January amid interest from Chelsea.

Rice is expected to leave the London Stadium in the near future having openly admitted his desire to play for a Champions League club back in November.

The 24-year-old’s deal is up in 2024, and while there is an option to trigger a one-year extension, The Athletic previously reported that West Ham are resigned to losing their star midfielder.

Rice has rejected three new contract offers, the last of which would have seen him become the highest paid player in their history, and it has been nine months since talks were last held.

Asked about Rice’s future in his pre-match press conference on Thursday, ahead of West Ham’s clash against Brentford, Moyes said:

“There’ll be no chance Declan Rice leaves in this window, no way. Impossible.”

West Ham will reportedly consider the future of Rice in the coming months as expectation is for big proposals to arrive in the summer.
