Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly engaged in talks with West Ham United regarding a potential summer move for Ghanaian attacker Mohamed Kudus, according to Goal.
The discussions come as the Lilywhites look to reshape their attacking line under new boss Thomas Frank, aiming to build upon last season’s Europa League triumph and mount challenges in domestic and European competitions.
After replacing Ange Postecoglou with Thomas Frank, Spurs’ board is prioritising marquee signings to support the new manager and build on their success last season.
Tottenham ready to make bid for Mohamed Kudus
Spurs are reportedly preparing to make an opening bid in the region of £50 million, although that figure falls short of the £65 million valuation set by West Ham.
Kudus is a versatile, attacking player, who can play on both the wings as well as in a central role.
His technical flair would not only complement Spurs’ style but also provide depth as they prepare for a return to the Champions League.
West Ham’s £65 million valuation contrasts with Spurs’ proposed £50 million offer, a disparity that could stall talks.
