Mohammed Kudus transfer news. African footballers. Ghanaian forward Mohammed Kudus has become a key transfer target for Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr, who are preparing a massive bid to sign him this summer.
The Saudi giants attempted to bring Kudus to the Middle East during the winter transfer window, but West Ham United rejected their offer. However, Al Nassr has not given up and is now ready to return with an improved bid of €98 million, according to GiveMeSport.
Their interest in Kudus grew after missing out on Kaoru Mitoma, who remained with Brighton & Hove Albion despite a €88 million offer from Al Nassr. With Mitoma unwilling to leave Europe, Al Nassr has shifted its focus to Kudus, who fits their need for a versatile attacker.

The 24-year-old had an impressive start to his Premier League career with West Ham, showing flashes of brilliance. However, he has struggled to find consistency in front of goal this season, scoring just three goals and providing one assist in 24 league games. Despite his recent form, Kudus remains a highly-rated talent, known for his dribbling skills, speed, and creativity.
West Ham signed Kudus from Ajax in 2023, and he is under contract until 2028, with an option for an extra year. The Hammers are in no rush to sell, but Al Nassr’s financial strength could put pressure on the club to consider the offer.
With Al Nassr determined to strengthen their squad and Kudus on their radar, the transfer saga could become one of the biggest talking points of the summer. It remains to be seen whether West Ham will accept the offer or hold on to one of their brightest attacking talents.
