Arsenal identified Mohammed Kudus as one of their main targets for the next summer transfer window. The Ghanaian midfielder, who is currently excelling at West Ham United, has been a revelation since his move from Ajax, and his performances have put him firmly on the radar of top clubs, including the Gunners.

Kudus has impressed in the Premier League, showcasing his versatility, technical prowess and knack for impactful dribbling. His ability to retain and advance the ball under pressure has set him apart, even when West Ham are struggling as a team. Despite his team’s inconsistencies, Kudus still put in remarkable performances, highlighting his potential to shine at a higher level.

For Arsenal, Kudus represents a player who could fit perfectly into Mikel Arteta’s dynamic, possession-oriented system. His versatility is another important asset, as he can play in various attacking roles, providing both depth and flexibility to Arsenal’s lineup. Alongside stars like Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli, Kudus could further elevate the Gunners’ attacking options.

However, West Ham are said to be reluctant to part with their prized asset without significant financial compensation. According to Sheetsthe Hammers set a high price of €95 million on Kudus, reflecting their understanding of his growing market value and the high demand for his signature. This valuation could pose a challenge for Arsenal, as they need to balance their spending across multiple positions to keep their team competitive.

Although €95 million may seem high, investing in a young, proven Premier League player like Kudus could pay dividends for Arsenal. If they decide to reach West Ham’s valuation, Kudus’ arrival would undoubtedly strengthen their quest for domestic and European glory in the seasons to come.

Securing Kudus would be a statement of intent from Arsenal, signaling their ambition to build a team capable of competing regularly at the highest level. The question remains whether Arsenal will make efforts to finalize the deal or explore more profitable alternatives in the market.
