Michail Antonio, West Ham United’s striker, has made a weird remark about fantastic midfielder.
Declan Rice left West Ham to join Arsenal in the summer for around £105 million, and Michail Antonio has a rather unique take on that fee.
Former Aston Villa striker turned talkSPORT pundit Gabby Agbonlahor absolutely slaughtered the 33-year-old earlier this season for being so outspoken on his podcast, and I have to say I agree with him.
Rice, 25, has been exceptional for Arsenal this season, and he has been a real driving force behind their Premier League title challenge.
The powerful England international has gone from strength to strength over the past five or six years, and despite the way he left West Ham, it’s very hard not to respect him as a player.
Aside from Rodri, is there a better ‘number 6’ in the Premier League or even world football? I honestly don’t think there is.
So with that in mind, Antonio’s latest claim about his former Hammers teammate really was rather strange…
