One player who has seen his future heavily speculated is midfielder Declan Rice.
Understood to be wanted by a whole host of top sides, the club that appears best placed to sign the England international, at the moment, is Manchester United and former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore feels the time may be right for the Hammers to cash in.
Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside, columnist Collymore said: “As difficult as it would be to let Declan Rice go, that £100m – £120m would go quite some way to be able to then compete with Arsenal, Spurs, Villa.
“[…] I think now, tactically, might be the right time to cash in on him to be able to strengthen in other areas and crucially keep the core of the team they have got…”
