Man Utd want to sign another Ajax star in January

Manchester United have their sights on landing Ajax forward Mohammed Kudus during the January transfer window.

The Red Devils are eager to pursue a new striker in the New Year after taking the decision to terminate Cristiano Ronaldo's deal.

PSV Eindhoven's Cody Gakpo has been talked about as the main target, but Mundo Deportivo claim that Kudus is also an option.

Kudus has already played under manager Erik ten Hag at Ajax and it is reported that the Dutch manager could eye a reunion.

The Ghanaian has got over his injury problems this campaign and he has managed 12 goal contributions from 21 appearances.

Kudus also starred for the Black Stars at the World Cup with two goals and Ajax are now prepared to capitalise on his stardom.

The Dutch champions are open to parting ways with the highly-rated forward if they receive a package of around €45 million.

United are said to be knocking on the door for a transfer, but Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle United are also keeping tabs on him.
