Mohammed Kudus of Ajax is the top target in the upcoming transfer window for both Premier League giants

Ghanaian international Mohammed Kudus, currently playing for Ajax Amsterdam, is one of the most desired names in the notebooks of English Premier League scouts.

According to The Athletic, Arsenal, Manchester United and Newcastle United are among those tracking the 22-year-old attacking midfielder.

Kudus has scored 22 goals in 48 games for club and country so far this season.

He is under contract at the Johan Cruyff Arena until 2025, but he rejected a one-year extension in April and has made the Dutch side aware of his intention to exit once the window opens on June 10.

It is expected to require a fee of around £40 million ($49.8m) to sign the Ghana international, although that might be influenced by which teams are in for him.

He moved from Nordsjaelland in July 2020 and came close to joining Everton last August before Ajax blocked the switch. Kudus also caught the eye at the 2022 World Cup, scoring two goals.
