Rice celebrates with nephew during potential final appearance for West Ham

West Ham United’s Declan Rice celebrated his team’s victory in the Europa Conference League final by inviting his young nephew onto the pitch. The Hammers secured a 2-1 win over Fiorentina, with Jarrod Bowen scoring the late winner, which marked the club’s first major trophy since 1980. Rice, who became the first West Ham skipper to lift a European trophy since Bobby Moore in 1965, spotted his nephew in the crowd wearing a ‘Rice 41′ shirt and brought him onto the pitch. He then held him over his shoulder and danced in front of the West Ham fans. The heartwarming moment was soon joined by the rest of the Hammers’ squad and manager David Moyes. However, this could be one of Rice’s final acts as a West Ham player, with Arsenal, Manchester United, and Bayern Munich all being linked with a move for him this summer. On the reports about his future, Rice said that there is interest out there, but he still has two years left at West Ham and no offers have been made yet.
