Karren Brady Reveals Hopes for Declan Rice's Long-Term Future at West Ham

West Ham vice-chair Karren Brady has admitted that she hopes emerging starlet Declan Rice will emulate Mark Noble's legendary status at the club.

After honouring club legend Billy Bonds last Saturday by naming a stand after him, comparisons have been made with current Hammers' captain Mark Noble; who is about to play his 400th game for the east London side.

Writing in The Sun, Karren Brady addressed Noble's loyalty and also extended the comparison to Declan Rice, admitting hopes that the midfielder will go on to be a one club man – even with his huge potential seeing him with moves to top Premier League clubs already.
