Arsenal target Mohamed Kudus as West Ham open to selling Ghana star

Arsenal are weighing up a summer swoop for West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus as the Gunners look to bolster their midfield with top-level talent ahead of next season.

The 24-year-old Ghana international is reportedly open to leaving the Hammers, with sources indicating he wants to stay in the Premier League and compete at a higher level. Arsenal’s Champions League status puts them in a strong position to lure the former Ajax star to north London.

West Ham are believed to be ready to sell Kudus if they receive a substantial offer, raising hopes of a potential deal. Mikel Arteta is said to be a long-time admirer of Kudus’ dynamism and creativity, which could add depth and flair to Arsenal’s midfield options.

Kudus, who enjoyed a solid season at the London Stadium, has also been linked with other English clubs. However, reports in England suggest he is not interested in a move to Saudi Arabia and prefers to stay in Europe where the competition remains elite.
