Arsenal are interested in completing £40 deal for central midfielder

Arsenal are reportedly planning another transfer raid for a £40million Ajax star – as they are keen on Mohammed Kudus.

ARSENAL have already been busy in the transfer market this summer, sealing the £105m arrival of midfielder Declan Rice from West Ham, who became their third new arrival after the £40m capture of defender Jurrien Timber from Ajax and the £65m signing of attacker Kai Havertz from Chelsea.

But the transfer window is not yet closed and Mikel Arteta has already dropped a hint that there could be some more faces making the move to the Emirates over the next couple of weeks.

WHAT IS THE LATEST – 

Now the Daily Mail are claiming that he is interested in Ajax’s £40m-rated Mohammed Kudus.

The 22-year-old Ghana international , who also has Brighton keen on signing him, is comfortable as a conventional central midfielder, playing more advanced or even on the right wing and his versatility has made him an attractive option to the club’s recruitment staff.

However, their report adds that Arsenal are “focusing on trimming Arteta’s squad before adding to their £200m recruitment spree”.

WOULD KUDUS BE A GOOD SIGNING – 

To be honest the players that Arteta needs to add to the squad now will only need to be squad members – he has done the business that he really wanted to achieves.

Kudus is a very solid midfielder that would offer a bit of power to that midfield – and with reports suggesting that Thomas Partey is leaving the club – he could be the ideal replacement.

There will be many more names linked with a move to the Emirates over the next few weeks – but we would not be surprised to see just 1 more make the move.
