Declan Rice: Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy insists he wont pressure West Ham starlet to reject England approach
Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy says Declan Rice is a player I can build a team around, but insists he will not put pressure on the youngster as he deliberates his international future.The West Ham starlet is stalling on whether to commit to Ireland or switch his alleigence to England, who have an expressed an interest in calling him up.3

Declan Rice has signed a new contract at West Ham but has yet to choose between Ireland and England

Rice, 19, was born in London but qualifies for Ireland through his grandparents and he has made three appearances for the Republic of Ireland team.However, as those were all in friendlies, he can still make the switch over to his native England.And while McCarthy has guaranteed Rice a place in his team if he picks the green shirt, the Ireland boss insists he will allow the versatile defender/midfielder to make his own choice.Speaking to talkSPORT host Jim White, the manager said: Theres a lot going on for the young manWe say, oh they should be able to makes their minds up, but hes young fella and hes only just got into the West Ham team.I remember saying when I was doing some stuff with Ireland, look, let him get into the West Ham team, let him settle, let him be a first team player and then hell make his mind up.Im still of the same opinion.3

Rice has made three appearances in friendlies for Ireland

If he wants to play for me Ill be delighted, and Ill be picking him, but Ive left it with him. I cant do anymore.Its not my job to decide whether he plays for the Republic of Ireland.There was a real issue with his contract [at West Ham] and they got that sorted out now, so I guess hes got his head clear on that and he can make his mind up.3

McCarthy insists he will not put pressure on the youngster as he decides his international future

My job is to pick him if he decides to play for us, and I hope he does because hes an excellent player.Hes a player I can build a team around.
