FOOTBALL fans have been left convinced that Declan Rice will be on the move this summer.
This is after Rice was NOT included in the team’s pre-season tour promotional pics.

West Ham announced they would be going on tour to Australia.
The picture they used to advertise the tour included Lucas Paqueta, Jarrod Bowen and Nayef Aguerd.
But the noticeable omission of club captain Rice has left fans convinced he will not be at the club in the summer.
One fan wrote: “Haha admin knows Rice is off and won’t be featuring in the tour .”
A second said: “No Rice also in the promo video or picture already confirms what we all already know. That he won’t be here for that tour.”
A third typed: “Where’s your captain? Does it mean that he will leave the club in the summer?”
While a fourth commented: “Without DR,” with another adding: “No Rice then?”
London clubs Arsenal and Chelsea are two of the most heavily interested parties in a transfer for the England star.
HOW TO GET FREE BETS ON FOOTBALL
It has been reported Rice could be sold for around £80million.
Arsenal are keen to bolster their midfield, having previously seen two offers for Brighton’s Moises Caicedo rejected.
Chelsea splashed out an English-record £107m on Enzo Fernandez, but remain keen on bringing their former academy prospect back to Stamford Bridge.
The Rice omission comes after Tottenham talisman Harry Kane was left out of the clubs own pre-season tour promo.
