Wilshere said that Rice, who currently plays for West Ham United, is a good person.
According to him, the 24-year-old has shouldered a significant burden at West Ham despite his young age.
Rice is expected to leave West Ham United this summer, and the England international has been linked with a move to Arsenal, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Liverpool.
Talking about Rice, Wilshire said (via Football Daily):
“People forget how young he is. He’s been sort of carrying that club [West Ham] for the last two seasons.
“One best thing about him is that he is such a good person.”
Rice made 50 appearances for West Ham during the 2022/23 season, scoring five goals and providing four assists.
