West Ham United star Mohammed Kudus could be on his way to another London club in the summer transfer window, according to reports - with the Ghana international having 'entered' Arsenal's radar ahead of a potential move across the English capital.
Kudus hasn't enjoyed the best season of his career under both Julen Lopetegui and Graham Potter, grabbing just seven goal contributions in all competitions for the Irons - but his 'world-class' form last season that saw the club reach the Europa League quarter-finals still holds some credit, and that could see the Gunners make a concerted effort to secure his signature in the coming months.

The report by Spanish outlet Fichajes states that Kudus has entered Arsenal's radar after his incredible debut campaign with the Hammers last season, despite his poor form in the current campaign.

Mikel Arteta is keen to strengthen his attacking ranks, and has identified the Ghanaian as an 'ideal asset' to improve his forward line. The Gunners' recruitment team value both his current form dwindling and his room for improvement as an opportunity, and could make a significant financial commitment to secure his services.
Kudus has proven his worth in the Premier League in the capital, showing that he can compete at the highest level - and although West Ham's overall performance has left something to be desired, his exploits last season and for Ajax have not gone unnoticed by country's biggest clubs.
Those close to Kudus haven't ruled out a change of scenery. Only 24, he may feel that the time is right to take a step forward in his career and become part of a more 'ambitious' project - with Arsenal's interest fitting into his sporting aspirations, as well as a desire to stay in London.
It would reportedly take around €70million (£60million) to prise him to the Emirates Stadium, but Champions League money could play a part and West Ham chiefs are aware that retaining his signature would be a difficult task if Arsenal ramp up their interest.
There haven't been any formal moves as yet, but the Hammers assume that the transfer window will be busy for their midfield star - with Kudus awaiting developments ahead of a potential exit from the London Stadium.
