West Ham ‘celebrating’ Liverpool signing Darwin Nunez as David Moyes’ transfer fears eased | Football | Sport
Having Bowen sign a new contract would ease Moyes’ fears about losing his best players. However, some at West Ham believe Chelsea could still come in with a bid for midfielder Declan Rice.
There has been plenty of interest in the England man, including from the Blues. The West Londoners are able to make signings following the takeover of Todd Boehly’s consortium.
Moyes has insisted that Rice is not for sale and it would take a bid of around £150m to bring West Ham to the negotiating table. He said in April: “The first thing to say is that he is not for sale. If you are interested, well, it will be north of that. £100m was cheap last summer.
“One hundred and fifty just now would be minimum but he is not for sale. What I do know is that it means there are only certain clubs that could even consider it.”
