West Ham in talks to sign Arsenal and Chelsea target

West Ham United are in talks to sign Ajax attacker Mohammed Kudus, who has also been linked with Arsenal and Chelsea.

The Ghana international had an impressive 2022/23 season with the Dutch giants, scoring 18 goals and providing seven assists.

He has now made the decision to pursue a bigger challenge and reports have claimed that he would like to move to England.

Brighton & Hove Albion recently negotiated a deal worth €40 million with the 23-year-old, but failed to agree personal terms.

Chelsea and Arsenal are also keen admirers of the versatile star, but the Hammers are currently moving ahead to sign him.

The east London outfit are looking to reinforce their midfield and see Kudus as a potential replacement for wantaway Lucas Paqueta.

Paqueta is currently on the radar of Manchester City. He has been touted to join the Premier League champions for around €100m.

The Hammers have been busy in the past few days. They have announced the arrivals of Edson Alvarez and James Ward-Prowse.
