DECLAN RICE kicked back on holiday with some famous faces after a long, hard 2025/26 season.
The Arsenal and England star racked up a staggering 69 games for club and country as he won the Premier League with the Gunners and helped the Three Lions finish third at the World Cup.

Rice posted a slideshow of 15 pictures to Instagram on Thursday evening which was captioned: “peace”.
In one of them, the 27-year-old was chilling out in a gourmet beachside restaurant in Sardinia with James Corden and Mark Noble.

In another, Rice was arm-in-arm on a boat with former West Ham team-mate Noble, who is now the sporting director at London Stadium.
He crammed an awful lot into three weeks, as he also shared snaps of a massive cruise liner, a helicopter, and a selfie in the driver’s seat of a jet ski.
Rice has been enjoying family time, too, with son Jude pictured kicking a football on a golf course and fishing.
And Rice clearly finds it hard to switch off from football completely, as he was seen doing kick-ups with a basketball before volleying it impressively into a net in the sea.

Rice and West Ham fan Corden have struck up a close friendship since they were introduced by Noble a few years ago.
They have been spotted enjoying meals out in London and, according to Rice, they frequently chat on FaceTime.
Rice is now easing back into Arsenal training after watching the friendly clash with Como on Wednesday.
The Gunners kick off their competitive season against Manchester City in the Community Shield this weekend.
