Arsenal has identified Mohammed Kudus as one of their primary targets for the upcoming summer transfer window. The Ghanaian midfielder, currently excelling at West Ham United, has been a revelation since his move from Ajax, and his performances have firmly placed him 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 dribbles. His ability to retain and progress the ball under pressure has set him apart, even when West Ham struggles as a team. Despite his side’s inconsistencies, Kudus has consistently delivered standout performances, underlining his potential to shine at a higher level.
For Arsenal, Kudus represents a player who could seamlessly fit into Mikel Arteta’s dynamic and possession-oriented system. His versatility is another significant 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 elevate the Gunners’ attacking options further.
However, West Ham is reportedly reluctant to part ways with their prized asset without significant financial compensation. According to Fichajes, the Hammers have placed a hefty price tag 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 must balance their spending across multiple positions to maintain squad competitiveness.
While €95 million may seem steep, the investment in a young and Premier League-proven player like Kudus could pay dividends for Arsenal. If they decide to meet West Ham’s valuation, Kudus’s addition would undoubtedly bolster their quest for domestic and European glory in the coming seasons.
Securing Kudus would be a statement of intent from Arsenal, signalling their ambition to assemble a squad capable of competing at the highest level consistently. The question remains whether Arsenal will push to finalize the deal or explore more cost-effective alternatives in the market.

Gyokeres would be available for a lesser amount and better player and scores more goals.
Arsenal distraction has become boring as they keep getting their nose everywhere without acting.
Man City andLiverpool never send out info about interest in players if they are not ready to buy.
Too much noise and no action
We need to a striker much more than a winger right now please
It’s the media who report the news – MA has always said he doesn’t comment on other clubs players.
I think last season, we were linked with nearly 100 players and yet The Arsenal only commented once they had actually signed a player.
Thank you Ken.
👍
Quality players will usually be expensive in fee and/or wages. Obviously, Arsenal will want the best deal they can get but if they are waiting to get one cheaply, they’re likely to be disappointed in the end.
I think Arsenal urgently needs a striker, our stars play very well but misses significant chances when it comes to striking on target.
We had opportunity to sign him when he was at Ajax, but we let it pass. If we want him now we have to much more.
