June 4, 2025 – Chelsea are reportedly among several top Premier League clubs showing serious interest in West Ham United’s dynamic midfielder Mohammed Kudus, sources have confirmed.
The 23-year-old Ghanaian international, who joined the Hammers from Ajax last summer, has impressed in his debut Premier League season with his explosive performances, technical ability, and eye for goal. Kudus quickly became a fan favorite at the London Stadium, notching 13 goals and 5 assists in all competitions during the 2024/25 campaign.
Crucially, Kudus has an ÂŁ85 million release clause in his contract, which is only active for Premier League clubs during the first 10 days of July. This tight window could prompt a flurry of activity early in the summer transfer window, with Chelsea now among the clubs closely monitoring the situation.
Sources close to Stamford Bridge suggest new manager [insert name if known] is a strong admirer of Kudus’ versatility and attacking flair, viewing him as a key potential addition in their midfield rebuild.
West Ham are keen to keep hold of their star man, but the activation of the release clause would take the decision out of their hands. With interest building across the league, Kudus could become one of the most sought-after names in the early weeks of the window.
Expect further developments as July approaches.
Stay tuned for the latest on this story and more updates from the summer transfer market.
