The completion of Mohammed Kudus’ move to West Ham United appears to be imminent.
As reported by multiple sources, West Ham United has successfully reached an agreement on personal terms with Kudus and is now in the final stages of negotiations with Ajax concerning a transfer fee of €42 million.
Renowned for his exceptional talent, Kudus is held in high esteem and is projected to emerge as one of the most outstanding players produced by the African continent.
Given his remarkable potential, many Ghanaians are vested in his growth, leading to a debate regarding whether West Ham United is the ideal club to accelerate Kudus’ development or if it might impede his progress.
Compiled below are three reasons why Kudus Mohammed should opt to join West Ham United.
Guaranteed game time in favourite roles
Approaching his prime years, Kudus is on the verge of unlocking his full potential, and the key lies in gaining more playing time.

Furthermore, Kudus will also have the opportunity to operate in his favoured number 10 position, as West Ham United currently lack a playmaker.
