Declan Rice has immediately mocked Bukayo Saka at England training after the Arsenal winger’s call with Kim Kardashian.
International football takes centre stage this week and that means England players joining up again for the first time since the World Cup.
Players have been arriving at St George’s Park in Burton ahead of England’s games against Italy and Ukraine.
Arsenal star Saka arrived today but was immediately hit with jokes from West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice.
As Saka made his way towards Rice and Manchester United’s Luke Shaw, Kim Kardashian was immediately brought up.
“Bro he’s been on FaceTime with Kim Kardashian, he doesn’t want us anymore!” joked Rice.
“Do you want me to say hello to you or not?” responded Saka before the pair had a hug.
Kardashian was surprisingly spotted at Arsenal’s Europa League clash with Sporting on Thursday night.
Just a day later, Saka was seen FaceTiming Kardashian and her children, promising them Arsenal shirts and a Gunners title win.
Rice couldn’t resist a little joke at Saka over the whole thing with the Arsenal star becoming a bigger celebrity by the week.
Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice could join forces at Arsenal
Arsenal fans will love to see Rice and Saka joking around given rumours they could join forces this summer.
Arsenal are interested in signing Rice and The Guardian claimed last weekend that the move is ‘likely’ to happen.
The Gunners will have a much better chance of a deal if they secure the Premier League title, with other Premier League clubs keen.
The time has come for Rice to leave West Ham having endured a relegation battle with the Hammers this season.
Arsenal may be willing to use Rice in an advanced midfield role, somewhat similar to Granit Xhaka this season.
Rice and Saka appear to have a decent bond and Arsenal supporters are surely excited by the prospect of them joining up together at the Emirates Stadium this summer.
