Many fans have noticed the amount of Tottenham Hotspur shirts hanging on West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice’s wall after his latest Instagram post.

Rice posted a picture seemingly from the games room in his house, where he had a number of framed shirts in the background.

The West Ham man had the likes of Mason Mount and Jack Grealish in shot, but right in the middle of the photo were three Tottenham player’s kits.

Harry Kane, Heung Min Son and Gareth Bale’s shirts were clearly visible in the picture.

And many Tottenham and West Ham fans actually picked up on the kits hanging on the wall, given the rivalry between the two sides.

Here are a selection of comments under the West Ham man’s latest post:

Nicolas.hl10: Welcome to spurs👀👀👀

JakeWoolmer: Loving the Spurs 👀❤️

George Laycock: Too many spurs shirts for my liking

Michael Bossi: Too many Spurs kits

T3l89: All them Spurs shirts behind ya 😂

Tony Arqdes: Secret Spurs fan or what 😢

Rice quickly responded a West Ham fan who called him out on the Tottenham kits, insisting that everything was ‘all in order’.

Jesse Lingard also noted that his kit wasn’t visible on the wall, and he joked that he was disappointed not to see his shirt hanging up.

Lingard and Rice have formed a great relationship since his move to West Ham, with the pair linking up excellently.

West Ham will actually be looking to hold off the challenge of Tottenham in the coming weeks.

David Moyes’ side are chasing a top four spot, with Tottenham now breathing down their necks.

Spurs are currently two points behind West Ham, with just five games remaining this season.
