West Ham are now close to agreeing a £38 Million deal for Ajax's Mohammed Kudus, as with any deal of this magnitude there were several 'complications' that needed to be sorted out, mainly agent and club related, but the player himself has handled the situation extremely well during the negotiations.

That was until a couple of days ago when 23 year old Mohammed Kudus decided he had enough of all the shenanigans. He outrightly denied that his demands were in anyway impacting on the deal he wanted completed, he did not want to be seen as someone who didn't want the move.

It was always a case of David Moyes having a 'meeting of minds' with new technical director Tim Steidten before Hammers could really progress in the transfer market and it appears that is exactly what has happened as Moyes and Steidten's targets seem to have 'harmonised' in recent days.

West Ham are hoping to strengthen their frontline with the signing of Hugo Etikite from PSG. The 21-year-old rose to stardom at Reims in 2020 and turned down the chance to join Newcastle in January 2022 as the club faced a relegation battle.
