Chelsea is gearing up to table a substantial £38.5 million offer to secure the services of West Ham star Mohammed Kudus during the upcoming summer transfer window.
Reports from Fichajes.net indicate that Arsenal is also in the mix, showing interest in acquiring the talented midfielder. The Spanish outlet suggests that both London clubs are keen on securing the signature of the standout performer from West Ham following his impressive debut season at the London Stadium.
Despite missing out on Kudus initially, Chelsea remains undeterred and is ready to make a move for him in the summer transfer window. With their ability to offload players before making new signings, Chelsea could gain an advantage over Arsenal in the pursuit of Kudus.
West Ham pulled off a significant coup by securing Kudus from Ajax in a deal valued at £38 million plus add-ons, beating out numerous European powerhouses for his signature. His immense potential is evident, and he has expressed a desire to compete in the Champions League and contend for trophies consistently throughout his career.
Given Kudus’s aspirations and the interest from top clubs like Chelsea, the likelihood of him staying at the London Stadium for the long term appears slim. As the summer transfer window approaches, the race for Kudus’s signature is expected to intensify, with Chelsea leading the charge with their substantial bid.
