Time is up for Mohammed Kudus to leave West Ham
Mohammed Kudus, the Ghanaian superstar, is too talented to remain stagnant. He needs a spark for his career, and West Ham is not going to provide that anytime soon.
In 2023, the Ghanaian international reportedly paid 38 million pounds to join from Ajax. He has since displayed glimmers of exceptional quality.
But things haven’t gone as planned this season. Kudus has just five goals to his name. His last strike came on the last of the Premier League this season.
According to Jamie Carragher, Kudus’ progress has stagnated. It is difficult to dispute this. Graham Potter replaced Julen Lopetegui in the middle of the season, putting West Ham (2.21) back in transition.
“Last season, he was fantastic. He just hasn’t looked the same player this season” Carragher said on Sky Sports.
He added: “Kudus might think this is an off-season for him, and last season was the real Kudus, and we get that type of player; It’s a good sign.”
“I won’t be surprised if there’s a change there somewhere because West Ham need the money,” Carragher remarked in reference to a possible transfer elsewhere.
On his best day, Kudus is a match-winning dribbler. However, his lack of consistency isn’t solely attributable to his own performance. One factor has been the club’s difficulties and tactical unpredictability.
Additionally, Lucas Paquetá’s betting case has increased ambiguity. If it is discovered that he was involved in match-fixing, he may be subject to a long-term ban. Kudus is now under additional creative strain as a result. However, the Ghanaian hasn’t been able to bear the burden by himself.
