• Arsenal are considering Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus as a potential transfer target, alongside Declan Rice, Moises Caicedo, and Mason Mount.
• Mikel Arteta is reportedly looking to sign two midfielders this summer, with Kudus being eyed for the number eight position.
• Arsenal will face competition from Manchester United for Kudus’ signature, with the Ghanaian valued at around €45 million.

Arsenal are reportedly considering Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus as one of their potential targets for bolstering their midfield in the upcoming transfer window.

The 22-year-old Ajax player has been linked with a move to both Arsenal and Manchester United, as reported by The Athletic’s David Ornstein and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

Kudus, who is currently contracted with Ajax until mid-2025, has been turning heads with his impressive performances in the Eredivisie this season. As per Romano, the versatile midfielder is on the radar of both Premier League giants; however, no concrete offers have been made yet.

Ornstein, on the other hand, has confirmed that Kudus is definitely on Arsenal’s shortlist, along with other midfielders like Declan Rice, Moises Caicedo, and Mason Mount.

Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, sees the Ghanaian as a potential number eight in his squad, competing with Mount for a transfer to the North London club.

Arteta’s interest in Kudus comes as no surprise, given his impressive tally of 18 goals and five assists in 38 official matches for Ajax this season. Despite suffering an injury earlier this month, Kudus is expected to make a comeback in the KNVB Cup final against PSV Eindhoven.

Arsenal’s plan for the summer transfer window reportedly involves signing two of their four midfield targets. While Rice or Caicedo could be brought in for the number six position, Kudus or Mount may be signed for the number eight role. The club is focused on strengthening its midfield to provide a more youthful and dynamic option for the team.

The Gunners are set to invest further in their squad, with the Kroenke family pledging to continue supporting the team financially. Arsenal’s return to the UEFA Champions League has been confirmed, and the club is determined to assemble a squad capable of challenging for major silverware in the coming seasons.

Although Arsenal’s title challenge has faltered this season, a young and talented team has emerged that can go toe-to-toe with defending champions Manchester City in the league. The addition of a player like Mohammed Kudus could provide the much-needed depth and skill to help Arsenal cement their place among the Premier League’s elite.

With an estimated price tag of €45 million for Kudus, Arsenal will face stiff competition from Manchester United for the Ghanaian’s signature.

However, should the Gunners manage to secure the talented midfielder’s services, it would undoubtedly be a significant coup and a step in the right direction for Arteta’s ambitious project.
