Declan Rice Embarrasses Himself with Ridiculous Passport Mishap
The England squad are back together, and boy, have they got off to a cringeworthy start. Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice has been forced to endure a mortifying moment, courtesy of an overzealous member of staff at St George’s Park.
As Rice arrived at the training ground, he was greeted with an awkward hug from a England staff member. But rather than reciprocating, Rice attempted to hand the staff member his passport! The midfielder’s embarrassment knows no bounds, and this moment is sure to end up on TikTok (and every other social media platform).
Rice wasn’t about to let his embarrassment go unnoticed, explaining the incident to another member of staff. "Ooo ooo what we going for? It’s an awkward one," he joked. "It’s going to be on TikTok and allsorts."
The Arsenal star joined up with the England squad for the first time under new manager Lee Carsley, who has named an exciting squad for the Nations League fixtures against Ireland and Finland. Carsley selected a mix of experienced campaigners and new faces, with Angel Gomes, Morgan Gibbs-White, Tino Livramento, and Noni Madueke all earning their first calls-ups.
But back to Rice’s embarrassing moment, which has left fans in stitches. "Hands down the most awkward thing I’ve ever seen," said one fan on social media. "He knew straight away haha," added another.
It’s safe to say that Rice won’t be forgetting this moment in a hurry. But despite the embarrassment, he’ll be looking to put things right on the pitch and help England secure a winning start to their Nations League campaign.
