I think we're gonna end up signing Kudus to be honest. I rate him highly so I'd be over the moon with him replacing Madueke.

Hopefulky with Pedro and Kudus along with the midfield depth we’ll see inverted fullbacks less and less

Noni is for sure. Don't know Kudus that well. But I have a feeling if Noni was given the sure starting role in a top side he'd do 20-30 goal contributions a season with ease.

Can you please explain these two comments from you immediately after each other

Madueke to me is much more pure player in every meaning of the word

We just bought Pedro who is similar type of versatile player. Not sure about this but if Noni wants to leave we need to replace him with someone.

Kudus has much more talent than Madueke. If you want to know the real value of the player just ask who the neutral fans would pick for their own team. I'd guarantee you, no one'd pick Noni over Kudus.

Pure winger. Not a swiss army knife.

And yes I have only seen Kudus play a couple of times against us and a random WHU game. I think he can play centrally which is pretty alien to Noni.

Kudus only want's Spurs. Isn't speaking to any other club if we're going by Fabrizio Romano.

In terms of production the two are very similar

Player comparison Mohammed Kudus...

Player comparison Mohammed Kudus / Noni Madueke

Noni's minutes suggest he is used much more sparingly than Kudus although the two have almost identical stats. Both have featured in around 65 Prem games but Kudus has played 1200 minutes more so around 12-13 games worth more of minutes.

It looks like if we go for him we do because Noni's after Arsenal's wages of those stories are true.

If we manage to sell Noni for a healthy profit and get Kudus for decent fee it is fine. We can't stop Noni leaving if he wants to go and he isn't a key player for us at this stage.

Spurs are the only other ones bidding and clearly he wants a decent salary. As you say nobody willingly continues to ruin their career by going to West Ham and then Tottenham, unless he gets treble the salary that Chelsea are willing to pay.

That's what they said about Willian...........until he got the call from Abramovich!!

As if a player willingly wants to go to the 17th placed team with a new manager coming in whose highest achievement was what 8th?

As good as Frank is, the Brentford analytics team is the core. Their recruitment system has been top notch in terms of sustainability and team fit. They however have not cracked the code for football at the CL level.

Moving from West Ham to the total clusterf**k that is the Spuds is crazy.

I hope so, with Madueke leaving I would love to have Kudus join us.

Kudus is exactly what this franchise needs to kick on to the next level.

Instant upgrade on the inconsistent in everything but attitude Madueke.

Scott said we are likely done signing attackers and I agree. Completely forgot we have that Sporting winger coming next season.

Gittens/Neto/Pedro/Estevao/Palmer/George?

Neto/Palmer/Quenda is for the right

Gittens/Estevao/George on the left

Joao Pedro is the swiss knife

Palmer/Pedro/Kuddus could be our 10/SS

Either way with the insane amount of games we'll play, everyone will have enough playing time imo. Only problem is if everyone is too fit

Not from the clips and games I have seen him in. Quenda has played on the right predominately, dribbling past players and cutting inside to shoot with his stronger left foot.

Am I the only one singing Quenda, quenda, quenda, quendaaaa?

Have we signed him yet? We really should.

Via BBC :

Tottenham have agreed a £55m fee with West Ham to sign midfielder Mohammed Kudus.

The Ghana international is now set to have a medical before signing a long-term contract.

At least six top clubs have enquired about Kudus in recent weeks but well-placed sources told BBC Sport the 24-year-old had prioritised a move to Spurs.

Oh well. Is Rodrygo still on the bench?

I think if the CWC ended a bit earlier and we sold madueke we would have moved for kudus but we can’t without selling players first

With all the money coming in from CWC and sale of Madueke, plus others, we’ve barely touched our transfer budget.

Surely we have a massive signing in us. Maybe we’ll go for Rafael Leao? His current wages are 100k a week so it’s not impossible.

The likes of Rodrygo, I dread to think how much he gets. Probably 250k a week so no chance.

Good luck to anyone buying Kudus. Undoubted talent, serious temperament and self-discipline issues.
