Jude Bellingham has praised reported Liverpool and Chelsea target Declan Rice on Instagram after England went out of the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
West Ham United midfielder Rice, linked with Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool and Graham Potter’s Chelsea, has taken to Instagram to express his disappointment at England’s defeat to France in the quarter-finals of the World Cup on Saturday evening.
France, who won the World Cup in Russia in 2018, beat England 2-1 to book their place in the semi-finals.
The England international, who can also operate as a defender, is confident that the team will bounce back and is proud to be playing for the Three Lions.
Like Rice, Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham has also established himself as a key figure in Gareth Southgate’s side.
And, as you can see below, the 19-year-old has praised his English compatriot Rice.
Interestingly, both Rice and Bellingham have been linked with Liverpool and Chelsea.
According to GiveMeSport, West Ham United defensive midfielder Rice would seriously consider a move to Liverpool, although Chelsea are favourites for him at the moment.
The report has claimed that Liverpool have Rice on their radar as an alternative to Bellingham, with Chelsea also eyeing a move for the Dortmund star next summer.
