Declan Rice
Arsenal and England star Declan Rice has revealed that he struggles to fall asleep after matches, particularly those played at night, and often stays up playing video games online with his friends.
"I can never sleep after night games because, with the adrenaline and everything, it's impossible to settle down. I just turn on my PlayStation and play Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto or FIFA with a load of my friends," Rice, 27, told American magazine GQ in a recent interview.
Rice also revealed his passion for fashion, admitting that he has bought hundreds of tracksuits, trainers and jackets over the years. The midfielder has a particular fondness for Italian sportswear brand Stone Island. "When you're growing up, you love the badge, and then you get properly into it. These days, I'm after vintage jackets. They are sick," he said.
On the pitch, Rice has continued from where he left off last season. The midfielder has registered five assists in 10 English Premier League appearances as Arsenal have made a flying start to their title campaign. The Gunners lead the standings with 27 points from 10 matches, having won nine and lost one.
