Fowler does not want Liverpool to sign Bellingham, this player is better and cheaper

If all goes according to plan, 23-year-old Declan Rice is set to become one of the biggest shakers in the transfer market. At West Ham United, he is one of David Moyes's most trusted midfield players and is also tipped to start for Gareth Southgate's England team at the World Cup. He is also one of the Premier League's most promising young players.

The Premier League's major powers have been dazzled by the midfielder's remarkable impact. In that sense, the recurrent interest of Liverpool stands out and they are ready to cast their nets over this professional. And even more so from Football Insider's information.

According to the aforementioned media, the midfielder has declined a spectacular renewal proposal from the Hammers. We are talking about a salary that would soar to €12m per season, an amount that he would receive over the next eight seasons. However, it seems that Rice is determined to take on a challenge away from London's Olympic Stadium.

An opportunity, of course, that the Reds are keen to take advantage of in order to complete his move to Anfield. In this regard, one of Liverpool's great legends Robbie Fowler, advised the team to sign Rice over Jude Bellingham, another young midfielder who is also on the radar, but who would be much more expensive, as Borussia Dortmund would be asking for more than 100 million euros.

<strong>Rice is a player made for Liverpool</strong>

"The Bellingham link is brilliant because he's a very good player. Another player who I really like is Declan Rice, he fits into a Liverpool mould. Whether Liverpool are looking at players to come in, they have to have a certain amount of pedigree, those players need to have lots of energy. Rice fits that bill, he's a player who sits in the middle of the park but can get around the pitch with his endeavour as well. Rice is a player I'd like Liverpool to sign, not to be disrespectful to West Ham, but Rice will be a name on the top of many top teams' lists. Rice has been class for a few years now, you can see why clubs want him, but for me, he fits the mould of a Liverpool player," said Fowler.
