Mohammed Kudus is drawing strong interest from Premier League giants Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea, as all three clubs closely monitor the Ghanaian midfielder’s situation at West Ham United ahead of the summer transfer window.
The 23-year-old has a release clause set at £85 million, which becomes active in June for Premier League clubs. While his availability is no secret, it remains unclear if any club will be willing to meet the full clause—especially given Kudus’ recent dip in form, which has mirrored West Ham’s own struggles on the pitch.
Still, his quality hasn’t gone unnoticed. Following West Ham’s recent loss to Liverpool at Anfield, Reds manager Arne Slot reportedly praised Kudus, calling him “unplayable,” a comment that has only intensified speculation linking the midfielder with a potential move to Merseyside.
West Ham are expected to undergo a major squad overhaul this summer. The sale of Kudus, along with Brazilian playmaker Lucas Paquetá, is expected to be a key part of funding their transfer plans.
Although the Hammers are reluctant to let Kudus go for less than his valuation, they are hopeful that growing interest from multiple top clubs could spark a bidding war—pushing the final fee closer to the full £85 million release clause.
