West Ham winger, Mohammed Kudus, is highly likely to leave his current club during the upcoming summer transfer window following interest from top european clubs.
The 24-year-old Ghanaian is being targeted by Chelsea, who are willing to pay his release clause of €106.5m. Chelsea view Kudus as the ideal replacement for Mykhailo Mudryk, who is suspended from football due to doping accusations.
Chelsea's interest in Kudus has arisen amid the search for a new winger following Mudryk's absence since late November due to a suspension after testing positive for meldonium. Mudryk is currently awaiting the results of his B-sample test, and he could face a four-year ban if the second test is also positive.
This season, Kudus has played 28 matches across all competitions, scoring three goals and providing three assists. His contract with West Ham runs until June 2028, and his estimated value is 50 million euros.
Meanwhile, Tottenham have also shifted their radar on West Ham United winger Kudus.
According to Africafoot, Spurs are one of the clubs named as having an interest in Kudus and therefore one of his options this summer. It also states that PSG have now opened talks with the Ghanaian's entourage, which could be a blow to the Lilywhites' pursuit.
As well as the French champions, Spurs face stiff competition from Saudi side Al-Nassr, who've already made a marquee £87 million bid for the winger, which is above West Ham's £74 million asking price.
While Tottenham have joined the race to sign Kudus, alongside league rivals Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea, it would appear they are now very much up against it following PSG's reported approach.
The 24-year-old has also suffered a drop in form this season compared to last, netting just three goals and registering two assists in 25 league starts this season, so it is perhaps Levy and co start looking elsewhere for a more obtainable wide option.
