DECLAN RICE needs to ‘sort his life out’ according to West Ham icon Frank McAvennie.
Midfielder Rice has been linked with a big-money move to Manchester United or Chelsea.
Hammers boss David Moyes is reluctant to cash in on his most prized asset but his side’s struggles could see the 21-year-old leave in a bid to maintain his England career.
And ex-striker McAvennie wants Rice to make a definitive call swiftly.
He told Football Insider: “I hope Declan Rice sorts his life out.
“There are a lot of rumours about him going and I am not sure if he will stay this summer.
“Look what he did to Ireland. He could not make up his mind.
“I do not think he will be a stalwart for England over the next few years.
“Declan might think he has to go to a big club and shine to cement his place in the England side.”
Rice has previously shared his confidence in his ability to play at a higher level in the future but insists it must be at the right time.
He told FourFourTwo last year: “Don’t get me wrong, I think I’ve got the ability to play for a club like that.
“But it’s all about the timing and I don’t think the timing is right for me at all.
“I’ve still got so much to learn.”
