When does Kudus’ contract expire?

Mohammed Kudus’ current terms with West Ham United are set to expire in the summer of 2028.

Should Liverpool still push for Kudus?

With a long-term contract on the table, the Hammers are effectively free to set whatever price tag they desire for a talent of the Ghanaian’s quality.

We’d expect £85m to be a minimum ballpark figure for the 23-year-old’s services this summer. This could very well put off Liverpool given their reluctance to meet Newcastle United’s demands for Anthony Gordon.

The search for Richard Hughes and Co. looks set to continue for now.
