Sorry United as in-demand £80 million midfielder ‘to prioritize’ move to Chelsea

According to Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, believes Manchester United target Declan Rice would prioritize a move to Chelsea over any other club.

Heading into that January transfer window, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer knows that he will need to spend some more money in order to get this current side good enough to compete for that Top four spot, and maybe a title.

That has led to speculation in the media that United are now very much interested in securing a deal for Rice, who has become one of the most dominant midfielders in the Premier League for the Hammers.

However, Chelsea are another club that are keen to bring the young man to their squad and have been linked with a potential move for months, only missing out in the summer transfer window simply because his asking price was way too high.

Now, the Blues have been handed a boost in their chase to get the player signed up after Romano claimed that rice would prioritise a move to Stamford Bridge over a move to any other club.

Romano told the Here We Go podcast: “Declan Rice is still pushing to join Chelsea. But it is up to Chelsea to negotiate a fee with West Ham, which will be difficult in January.”

Rice is one of those players that it is the headlines for all the right reasons, his performances on the pitch deserves all the speculation to the likes of Manchester United or Chelsea.

So when that moment comes and an offer does arrive for his services, it will be extremely interesting to see just where the man makes the move too, he has to make the right decision to fullfil his true potential
