West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice has been linked with a move to Borussia Dortmund.

England manager Gareth Southgate talks to Jadon Sancho during an England training session at St. George's Park on October 9, 2018 in Burton-upon-Trent, England.

Jadon Sancho may just have a role to play in Declan Rice’s potential move away from West Ham United to Borussia Dortmund.

According to the The Sun, the German side want to snap up Rice from West Ham, when his contract expires.

The 19-year-old has still not penned a new deal at the London Stadium, and Dortmund are keen to swoop.

Whether a move to Dortmund would have appealed to Rice in the past is up for debate, but he has reason to believe that it could be great for his development now.

Sancho joined Dortmund as a youngster, and his form with the Bundesliga side has elevated him into the senior England squad.

Rice is currently contemplating his international future, but Sancho’s success at Dortmund, could encourage him to make a move away from West Ham.

And the Hammers will be hoping that Rice pens a new deal sooner rather than later, so Dortmund’s interest does not turn into something more concrete.
