Towards the end of the summer transfer window, West Ham United unexpectedly signed one of the most talented Ghanaian footballers, Mohammed Kudus. After a standout season in the Netherlands, the striker made a significant career move, transitioning to a top-tier championship and increasing his salary.

After the move to West Ham, it was reported by Goal.com that the Ghanaian star  was initially set to join another London club – Chelsea. The player’s agent, Jen Mendelewitsch, stated that the deal with the Blues didn’t go through due to a subpar offer to Ajax. “We reached an agreement with Chelsea, we agreed to the contract with Chelsea, but the deal was not completed. He spoke with the coach, but in the end, it didn’t happen because Chelsea made a ridiculous offer to Ajax. There was no counter offer. Chelsea did this with lots of players this summer, making very low offers to clubs, knowing that they would not be accepted.”

National Team Achievements

Mohammed Kudus

The forward debuted with the Ghanaian national team in 2019. Mohammed Kudus’s best achievement with the national team was in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. Despite the team earning only three points and failing to advance from the group stage, Kudus significantly contributed to Ghana’s sole victory in the tournament. The striker scored a brace in the match against South Korea, becoming his team’s top scorer in the World Cup.

As of now, Kudus is among the top goal scorers for the national team and is also the most expensive Ghanaian footballer in the English team.

Salary and Sport Prospects

Since joining West Ham United, the Ghanaian striker has not missed a single match. Initially, Kudus mainly served as a substitute, gaining more playing time in Europa League matches. However, the Ghanaian has already scored twice in the league and once in European competitions. The Athletic think that the player is doing well and deserves more attention. If his adaptation in England continues successfully, Kudus may attempt to replicate his own goal-scoring record, attracting the attention of top clubs and potentially leading to a salary increase.
