Daniel Levy has left more questions than answers after recent transfer news concerning Tottenham target Mohammed Kudus.
Tottenham have been linked to Kudus as an option to strengthen Thomas Frank’s squad for next season.
The Tottenham chairman has faced criticism in recent weeks for the lack of senior players signing at Hotspur Way. Spurs supporters are desperate for some new additions to help them compete in the UEFA Champions League.
But it now seems Levy has run into a new problem surrounding the transfer of Kudus this summer.
Kudus is Tottenham’s ‘third choice’ option
Tottenham are believed to be interested in signing Kudus this summer, but his transfer is a difficult one.
MORE SPURS STORIES
As reported by Paul O’Keefe via X (30 June), Spurs have already seen a £50million bid rejected by West Ham.
The Hammers and the Lilywhites rarely do business, and Kudus would be the first player to move between the two clubs since Scott Parker in 2011.
But Spurs are still determined to sign the Ghanaian this summer. However, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – has questioned why he was not a priority sooner.
“It does seem like Kudus is our third choice,” Wenham said.
“First, we were linked with Bryan Mbeumo and Eberechi Eze. It seems like they’re going to Manchester United and Arsenal, respectively.
“Therefore, it does raise questions that need to be answered. Is Kudus our third choice, and why weren’t we able to attract our first-choice signings, especially with Mbeumo having worked with Frank at Brentford?”
Tottenham should get the deal for Kudus signed
Kudus would be a fantastic signing for Frank this summer.
The 24-year-old is known as a versatile attacker and can play anywhere across the frontline, including as an attacking midfielder. This would not only give Spurs squad depth but would also promote healthy competition between players.
Indeed, Kudus would challenge several players for a starting spot, including Brennan Johnson, who was Tottenham’s top scorer last season. Having several options in the same position is something that would heavily boost Spurs’ trophy chances next season.
Therefore, Levy should go all out to ensure that Kudus signs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer.
