Declan Rice confirms ‘tough’ West Ham departure with Arsenal move imminent
Declan Rice’s ambition to play “at the very highest level” was behind his “tough” decision to leave West Ham. The 24-year-old’s departure from the club he joined a decade ago in a club-record £105million deal – making him the most expensive English player in history – was confirmed by the Hammers ahead of his imminent move to Arsenal. Rice’s last act as a West Ham player was to become only the third captain in their history, behind Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds, to lift a major trophy after last month’s Europa Conference League victory over Fiorentina. But the England international wants to play in the Champions League and that is something Arsenal can offer. In a letter to fans, Rice said his goodbyes after “an absolute whirlwind of emotion” over the last few weeks. “I want you to know how tough a decision it has been for me to leave an environment that I have loved and cherished so much,” he said. “This club and its supporters will always be in my heart, and forever a part of who I am. “Ultimately, though, it has only ever been about my ambition to play at the very highest level of the game. “Playing on the opposite team to West Ham for the first time will be an unusual experience. “I’m not sure yet exactly how I will feel, but I also know you will all understand and respect that my professional loyalties have to now lie with my new club.” Joint-chairman David Sullivan revealed last month the club had a gentleman’s agreement with Rice to allow him to leave this summer after the player turned down the offer of a highly-lucrative new contract. “I am sorry to see Declan leave us but I believe that everyone at West Ham United should be very proud of the part we have played in his journey from the Academy of Football at Chadwell Heath to becoming the most valuable young player in English football,” he said in a statement. “I would like to make it clear to our supporters that we did not want to sell Declan. We wanted to build our team around him and made a series of improved, long-term contract offers to secure his future. “However, once Declan made it clear that he wished to move on and seek a new challenge, the club felt it would not be right to stand in his way, acting in the best interests of West Ham United.” Rice made 245 appearances for the club, his last helping secure a first trophy since 1980, and manager David Moyes was understandably sad to see him leave. “I’d like to personally thank Declan for everything he has done during his time at West Ham United,” he said. “Obviously it is sad when we say goodbye to someone who has been with us for so long but we must now look forward. “As history shows, no player is ever bigger than the club. “Our entire focus now is on building upon the success we enjoyed last season, adding to our talented Europa Conference League title-winning squad as we enter our third consecutive season in Europe, and continuing to develop the best young talent through our successful academy.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Declan Rice leaves West Ham for record fee with Arsenal move imminent Alex Greenwood happy with ‘humble’ England’s chances at Women’s World Cup Ireland’s Niamh Fahey says nothing can truly prepare team for World Cup opener

Declan Rice leaves West Ham for record fee with Arsenal move imminent
West Ham have confirmed captain Declan Rice will leave the club for a “British record fee” – with the midfielder expected to sign for Arsenal imminently. The Hammers are understood to have been involved in discussions with the Gunners over the structure of a deal for the 24-year-old with the fee expected to be £105million. “I am sorry to see Declan leave us but I believe that everyone at West Ham United should be very proud of the part we have played in his journey from the Academy of Football at Chadwell Heath to becoming the most valuable young player in English football,” joint-chair David Sullivan said in a statement. “I would like to make it clear to our supporters that we did not want to sell Declan.

The England international made 245 appearances for the club and manager David Moyes was understandably sad to see him leave. “I’d like to personally thank Declan for everything he has done during his time at West Ham United,” he said. “Obviously it is sad when we say goodbye to someone who has been with us for so long but we must now look forward. “As history shows, no player is ever bigger than the club.

Food delivery driver baffled after being slammed for doing his job 'too quick'
A food delivery driver has taken to TikTok with claims his company marked the trip as "too short" to complete. In the viral clip, that's racked up almost 4 million views, Josh (@BikingDC) recorded himself collecting a coffee order from the vendor, before delivering it to a customer two blocks away. “Quick trip,” Josh jokes to the customer, who responded: "Yeah man, it’s hard to get out of the office." As Josh rides away, his phone shows a notification that read: "Can not complete delivery … The trip was too short to complete." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "Imagine doing your job so fast they app tells you to slow down," the TikToker wrote as the caption. "Homie ordered down the street because he cant leave post and i can respect that … but like i still need paid. [sic]." The footage was flooded with comments from baffled users, with one saying "They really need to fix that." Another joked: "Bro does his job so good that app can't process." "It’s probably because he bought normal delivery instead of priority so he has to take his time delivering it," a third theorised. @bikingdc Imagine doing your job so fast they app tells you to slow down ? Homie ordered down the street because he cant leave post and i can respect that … but like i still need paid ? #uber #ubereats #doordash #delivery #fooddelivery #bike #bicycle #washingtondc It comes after a separate food delivery driver hit out at their customer for giving a $5 (£3.90) tip. "I just wanna say, this is a nice house for a $5 tip," the driver says in footage captured on the video doorbell. In response, the customer responds: "You're welcome." The worker didn't take to the response too well, and yelled "f*** you," before heading back to his car. "I say 5$ is good since it was a 20$ order...seriously, what do they expect more than what the order is," one person wrote under the viral clip, as another chimed in: "Did he expect a 100 dollar tip on a 20 dollar order?"
