West Ham United fans are urging owner David Gold to get Declan Rice’s future sorted as soon as possible.

Rice has just months remaining on his current deal, and West Ham are still trying to negotiate a wage for the youngster.

Rice has turned down a £12,000-a-week contract at the London Stadium, the Daily Mail suggest, as he feels he is deserving of a higher wage.

And West Ham fans are urging Gold to pay up, to ensure that Rice stays around.

Rice is already playing an important role in West Ham’s first-team, and his stock has risen recently.

The youngster has started in defensive midfield for Manuel Pellegrini’s side in their last two matches and impressed.

West Ham have picked up four points from matches against Everton and Chelsea, with Rice impressing during both contests.

Rice reportedly has a great deal of interest in his services from Premier League sides, so would not be short of offers, if West Ham don’t secure his future.
