"It dropped and I was just happy to watch the video. I think it was the fastest streaming song in Nigeria's history, and hearing my name was great and I want to thank him for that," Rice stated.
"It has gotten to like 15 million streams now and I have seen many people singing it also."

Meanwhile, Rice and his teammates at West Ham United are currently occupying 15th position on the Premier League table with 34 points - four away from the relegation battle with just four matches remaining.

Arsenal could land Rice

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Chelsea could possibly play an important role in Arsenal's pursuit of West Ham's Rice as the club looks to bolster its defences.

The Englishman has courted interest from a number of Premier League clubs recently, with Manchester United also linked with a potential transfer move for the captain.

However, any potential suitor will have to fork out a significant amount of money, with Rice said to cost in excess of £100 million if he is to depart the London Stadium.
