West Ham’s embarrassing loss to Arsenal in their previous match is likely to have made some of the team’s top players reconsider their performances for the remainder of the season.
The Hammers were completely dominated by the Gunners, resulting in one of the most lopsided outcomes in recent London derby history.
Manager David Moyes’ squad struggled from the beginning to the end, and the manner of their performance may lead West Ham to rethink their decision on offering him a new contract.
However, if rumors are to be believed, this could become a secondary concern for the club’s board.
According to Fichajes, Chelsea is showing interest in West Ham’s standout player, Mohammed Kudus, and is prepared to make a substantial offer of around €45m for his services.
Arsenal, another London rival, is also reportedly interested in Kudus, but they would need to sell players before they can make any acquisitions.
The 23-year-old Ghanaian surely did not enjoy being part of West Ham’s most devastating home defeat since their 8-2 loss to Blackburn Rovers on Boxing Day in 1963, but he must have recognized the exceptional quality of the opposition.
Considering that Declan Rice recently made a cross-town move, it is unlikely that West Ham will entertain any bids for Kudus.
€45m euros? Not a chance.
