West Ham captain Mark Noble believes that youngster Declan Rice should be selfish about his international future.
Rice has represented the Republic of Ireland three times in international friendlies but is still eligible to switch allegiance to England as he has yet to play a competitive international fixture.
The 19-year-old rejected a call-up for the Republic or Ireland’s UEFA Nations League clash against Wales.
Had he played in the game, he would have lost the opportunity to play for England.
The decision taken by the youngster obviously indicates that he is at least considering playing for the land of his birth.
