West Ham could sell Mohammed Kudus this summer as they look to raise funds for the transfer window.

The Hammers are in a terrible financial position. Reports state that West Ham must sell to buy if they are to pass PSR.

This will no doubt be a challenge, especially as multiple new signings are needed to ensure the club is not in a relegation battle next season.

Now, the Hammers are reportedly willing to part with Kudus for a discounted price in the summer to help raise money.

Kudus has not built on last season’s stunning introduction to the London Stadium.

The winger has only netted four goals in all competitions so far this campaign and has picked up just three assists.

However, while the 24-year-old has underperformed, this has not stopped potential suitors from eyeing the Ghanaian.

Kudus' form has diminished since last season

With multiple additions needed to ensure the club is not in a relegation battle next season, it is now believed that West Ham are willing to part with Kudus in order to raise funds.

According to the Daily Mail, (page 75, 2 May), the Hammers are now willing to accept more “realistic offers” for the winger.

Kudus does have a £125 million release clause for Saudi sides, but the club will entertain £85 million bids from the Middle East, which is his release clause for Premier League sides.

It is believed that multiple clubs are currently interested in the 24-year-old, including Cristiano Ronaldo’s club Al-Nassr.

Kudus sale would be masterful business from West Ham

Kudus’ form has been a massive cause for concern this season. His goal against Brighton last weekend was his first in the Premier League since December, ending a terrible drought.

Given West Ham’s financial situation, the club cannot afford to hold onto such a valuable asset who is so inconsistent

If the club were to sell Kudus for £85 million, it would be masterful business.

West Ham would make an immediate big profit on the winger, while it should also guarantee that Jarrod Bowen stays at the club.
