West Ham chairman David Sullivan has confirmed captain Declan Rice will be allowed to leave this summer and he expects to start receiving bids immediately. The England midfielder said he did not know if he had played his last game for the club after leading them to Europa Conference League glory. A 2-1 victory over Fiorentina in Wednesday night’s final saw him become only the third Hammers skipper to lift a major trophy, following Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds. However, Sullivan admits a gentleman’s agreement means they will allow a player who still has two years remaining on his contract – one year plus an option – to leave. Asked whether lifting the trophy in Prague was Rice’s last action as a West Ham player, Sullivan told talkSPORT: “I think it has to be. We promised him he could go. “He set his heart on going and in due course he has to get on and we have to get a replacement. “It is not something we wanted to happen. We offered him £200,000-a-week 18 months ago and he turned it down. You can’t keep a player who doesn’t want to be there. “I think the offers will start to come today. Three or four clubs have shown interest but, out of respect to West Ham, while we’re still playing, you don’t make offers for players.” Rice said after the game that it was “not goodbye yet”. He added on BT Sport: “Look at the moment there’s a lot of speculation about my future. “There is interest from other clubs, that’s out there, but ultimately I’ve still got two years left at West Ham. “There hasn’t been nothing yet (offers). Let’s wait and see, who knows. “I love every minute of it here, you can see the smile on my face. “It’s not about that tonight, it’s about celebrating and that’s what I’m going to do now.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Women’s World Cup win would earn England’s players more than £200,000 each A World Cup-winning striker and mean defence – Inter’s strengths and weaknesses Big wins over Bayern and Real – Man City’s route to the Champions League final

Conspiracy theorists think Joe Biden is actually just a guy in a mask, pretending to be the 80-year-old president. Under normal circumstances, that would be a baseless, fringe opinion that is consigned to the dustbin of public discourse. But now, Elon Musk’s social media platform X/Twitter is pushing it to the top of everyone’s newsfeeds. Tweets have flooded the platform in recent days claiming that Biden has a body double, following pictures of the president returning from his recent trip to Israel. “They’ve been pretty good up until now making sure he never spends too long in a hot room so the mask will start coming off of his chin,” said right-wing conspiracy theorist Brian Cates last week. “Here the mask is starting to come loose, it is visible and you can see the bulging in the chin area.” Cates was one of a flood of accounts which tweeted the video with a suggestion that Biden’s face was, in fact, fake, and got tens of thousands of likes and retweets for it. Separately, another user called Liz Churchill posted a video, which appears to be a zoomed-in shot of a television screen, saying: “This is getting more ridiculous by the day. This is not Joe Biden.” The discourse comes on the same day that the Kremlin denied a report that Russian president Vladimir Putin was ill. It also laughed off speculation that he used body doubles to cover for him in public appearances, a theory that has been circulating for several years. "Everything is fine with him, this is absolutely another fake," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. He was responding to a question about an unsourced report by a Russian Telegram channel that the president had suffered a serious health episode on Sunday evening. As for Biden, there is zero credible evidence to suggest that he is anything other than an old man with a wrinkly face. However, in the increasingly warped world of X/Twitter, conspiracy theorists now have all the blue “verified” ticks rather than trusted news sources. And it seems with Musk’s changes, such as pushing those blue tickers’ tweets into the new “for you” section of the feed, more and more people are going to be seeing theories like this, much more frequently.
