The red side of Merseyside, after closing the chapter with their manager Jürgen Klopp, is in full mojo as they prepare to make some lucrative signings, with Ghanaian and West Ham baller Mohammed Kudus emerging as their top target heading into the 2024–2025 Premier League season.
Mohammed Kudus, who has been one of the shining and industrious newcomers in the just-ended Premier League season, took the world by storm as he made more take-ons to top the top five European leagues. His ability on the ball is no doubt one of the best in the world currently.
Liverpool, being one of the teams to have keenly followed the Ghanaian both at Ajax and West Ham, has decided to exercise options in triggering the £85 million release clauses for Mohammed Kudus in the summer window to bolster their attacking options, with new coach Arne Slot being an admirer of the 23-year-old.
The race to capture the signature of the Ghanaian in the coming days will be very crucial, as top teams like Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Arsenal all have the young talent on their radar.
Kudus will have some big decisions to make as there’s no doubt that he will fit in any big club moving forward after an impressive first season with West Ham scoring a total of 14 goals and providing six assists in all competitions.
Mohammed Kudus will be expected to return to the Black Stars ahead of June’s World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic, as Ghana’s hope is to see him replicate that same form with the national shirt.
