The Red Devils have set their sights on Ghanaian attacker Mohammed Kudus to enhance their squad for the upcoming season, Ghana Soccernet reports.Β
The 23-year-old has caught the eye of the Red Devils with his impressive performances, but the club is cautious about the significant price tag associated with the player.
Kudus, who joined West Ham from Ajax, made an immediate impact in his debut Premier League season, netting 8 goals and providing 6 assists. His stellar performance continued in the Europa League, where he scored five goals in nine matches, marking him as one of the standout players in the competition.
Known for his versatility, Kudus can operate both as a right winger and an attacking midfielder, making him a valuable asset. His familiarity with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, from their time together at Ajax, could be a crucial factor in the potential transfer.
