Real Madrid has a well-established track record of spotting, signing, and grooming the brightest young players in the world to become global superstars at the Santiago Bernabeu. This group includes names like Fede Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, Rodrygo, and Vinicius Jr. They seem to have added Arda Guler, another fantastic prospect, this summer. Expectations for the Turkish wonderkid are high.

Recently, Real Madrid has also been connected to a number of other highly regarded young players. Ajax’s Mohammed Kudus is one individual who fits that description.

Kudus has performed well for Ajax and scored a few goals to distinguish himself for the Ghana national team at the 2022 World Cup. It is easy to understand, then, why Real Madrid would have been interested in him.

It’s quite possible that the 23-year-old will leave Ajax this summer. But it appears that the Premier League is his most likely destination.

A transfer bid of €42 million has been made for Real Madrid.

According to Fabrizio Romano’s tweet, West Ham United have submitted a new formal transfer bid for Kudus in the last 24 hours. The bundle has a value of €42 million. However, Ajax has flatly rejected the proposal. They do not intend to agree to those terms.

Kudus is unquestionably a very talented person. Nevertheless, it is difficult to envision Real Madrid making a play for him at this moment, despite the prior connections.

When it comes to the tenth spot, they are completely stacked. After just two games this season, Jude Bellingham has already cemented himself as the team’s unquestionable starter. Nevertheless, players like Guler and Brahim Diaz can also play there. Kudus, of course, is also capable of playing on the right wing, where Los Blancos could use some additional depth.
