Declan Rice messages Pablo Fornals following his departure from West Ham United
In the summer of 2019, Pablo Fornals moved from Villarreal to West Ham United.
The fans enjoyed the Spaniard, who appeared on the field more than 200 times for the Irons. He was also a well-liked member in the changing area.
With just four Premier League starts this season, two of which came in January, Fornals plummeted down the West Ham hierarchy.
He received an offer from Real Betis to return to Spain, and yesterday evening, the transaction was finalized despite a last-minute twist.
Using the West Ham social media accounts, Fornals said farewell to supporters with emotion, and he received a message from his old friend Declan Rice.
“One of the best!” he wrote on his Instagram Story. Will always remember your objective in Alkmaar.
“It was enjoyable to play with you. Best wishes, Pablitoo.
Reviewing Pablo Fornals’ goal against AZ Alkmaar
Despite not having the most straightforward season the previous year, Pablo Fornals created an extremely unforgettable occasion for West Ham United supporters.
West Ham was clinging to their one-goal lead from the first leg of the Conference League semi-final against AZ Alkmaar at the very end of the match.
Fornals, who entered as a substitute, scored an incredible goal from outside the box to give the Hammers the advantage they needed and advance them to the final.
Everyone who witnessed Fornals’ strike that evening will never forget it, as Declan Rice noted above.
