Reliable West Ham United insider ExWHUemployee has delivered a brilliant update on Declan Rice.
West Ham set to make exciting pre-season announcement
West Ham have sorely missed Rice during his spell out through injury over the last couple of months.
The Hammers have lost key games against Newcastle, Chelsea and Everton during that time.

Hammers miss Rice again in potentially costly defeat
There were hopes Rice would be back in the side to face the Toffees yesterday.
But he was once again watching on from the stands as West Ham were brutally exposed through the middle of the park as Everton scored the only goal of the game.
West Ham are still very much in the hunt for a Europe. And David Moyes’s side still have a slim chance of Champions League qualification.
If Leicester and Liverpool lose to Manchester United this week, West Ham can go within two points of fourth place by beating Brighton on Saturday.

Insider ExWHUemployee says key man will back in the side for Brighton and Noble will return too
And Rice will be back for that crucial game. As will club captain Mark Noble.
That’s according to ExWHUemployee speaking on The West Ham Way podcast (May 9th).
“I can tell you that Rice will be back for the Brighton game,” Ex told TWHW podcast (May 9th).
“I think he’ll come straight into the starting XI… he should be back for the Brighton game. Noble will be available for the Brighton game as well.
“So that gives us a bit more options there.”

Rice return is huge, now West Ham just need a big favour from Man United
West Ham having Rice back for Brighton will be huge.
Especially after Moyes confirmed Manuel Lanzini’s season is more or less over with just a week left to play.
Ex’s update will come as a massive boost to West Ham fans after Moyes remained coy over the midfielder’s return after the defeat to Everton.
“Declan I am not putting a time on it yet, I can’t do that just now,” Moyes said in his post match press conference (Football London).
Brighton will be without key trio Lewis Dunk, Neal Maupay and Joel Veltman – read the full story here.
