For years, Tottenham owner Daniel Levy was teased for being tight with money, but the Englishman of Israeli descent has recently begun loosening the purse strings. Two years ago, Brennan Johnson was signed for 55 million euros, and last summer, a club-record 64.3 millions was spent on Dominic Solanke. Now, the Europa League winner is determined to pull off another mega-transfer.According to the reputable outlet The Athletic, West Ham has rejected a 59 million bid from Tottenham for team star Mohammed Kudus, as confirmed by sources close to the negotiations.Kudus is prioritising #Tottenham if he leaves West Ham!West Ham have turned down a £50m offer tonight, but talks continue.[@David_Ornstein] 🥇 pic.twitter.com/GTNFeAEaNX— Tottenham Tiers (@TottenhamTiers) July 5, 2025 Although the initial offer was turned down, the two clubs remain in contact, and talks could resume in the coming days.

In 35 appearances, Kudus has scored five goals and provided four assists, while West Ham finished only 14th in the Premier League. Despite the drop in form, his versatility and ability to play multiple attacking roles keep him highly valued on the market.By the way, Kudus’ dribbling stats over the years are ridiculous. Both, in terms of dribble volume and efficiency, Kudus is ridiculous. Of course, since he’s played for West Ham, they’ve mainly been attacking large spaces in transition.
