Declan Rice

Rice is a DM who covers ground and presses relentlessly, acting as a strong defensive screen. He reads runners well and blocks effectively, showing strong technical, tactical, and mental pillars. He carries the profile of an extraverted, structured player, though a heated exchange with coaching staff in January 2026 was noted. Recent discomfort in March 2026 led to his withdrawal from the England squad, highlighting a risk of overexertion.
