BREAKING: Arsenal considering big-money January swoop for West Ham star

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing West Ham attacker Mohammed Kudus when the January transfer window opens.
 

The 24-year-old has had a difficult season so far, largely due to West Ham's poor start under new boss Julen Lopetegui.

The Ghanaian has a release clause in his current contract, reportedly set at around £85m. This clause is expected to become active in the summer.

talkSPORT's football correspondent Alex Crook reports today that West Ham are open to selling Kudus in January if they receive a huge bid.

Arsenal are said to be weighing up a move for the player and the club would need to pay a fee similar to the release clause if they want to sign Kudus in January.

The same source also claims that the Gunners would need to sell some players to have a realistic chance of signing Kudus this winter.
