Arsenal encouraged to bring £85M Premier League star to Emirates

Valued by the Hammers at £85million, the 23-year-old has really impressed in that West Ham shirt since his move from Ajax, and Arteta is thought to be a huge admirer of Kudus after seeing him in action during his time in the Netherlands.

Many people doubted that Kudus would be able to adapt to the quality and pace of the Premier League when he made the decision to sign for West Ham in the summer – but he really has impressed in that Hammers shirt.

And now that Saka is out of action for some time, Truelove has claimed that Arsenal should make a move for Kudus, he said: ‘This is a tricky one. Arsenal don’t just need numbers, they need quality. Somebody who can improve the starting XI and add another string to the Gunners’ already impressive bow.

‘For me, Arsenal should sign a versatile forward capable of playing across the front line. They especially need cover at right wing, to take the burden off Bukayo Saka. With this in mind, I think Mohammed Kudus is ideal.

‘The West Ham man, 24, has Champions League experience and proved his quality with the Hammers in his debut Premier League season last campaign, scoring eight goals and grabbing six assists in 33 appearances. Kudus is capable of playing on the right and left wing so will add real versatility to Arsenal’s squad.

‘Kudus is valued at €50million (£41.5million), according to Transfermarkt, so a big fee is likely needed to get him out of West Ham. With plenty of years ahead of him, it may just be worth it.’
