CM: Milan keen on Ajax’s World Cup sensation Kudus but face competition

By Oliver Fisher -

AC Milan have again been mentioned as one of the teams interested in signing Mohammed Kudus from Ajax, but they face competition.

Kudus caught the eye at the recent World Cup in Qatar as he did his best to haul Ghana into the knockout stages of the competition scoring twice in the group stages, but they were ultimately eliminated.

The 22-year-old has five goals in 14 Eredivisie appearances for Ajax so far in the current campaign plus four in six Champions League games, which is enough for the top clubs in Europe to sit up and take notice.

Calciomercato.com have previously reported that Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are admirers of Kudus having seen him at the World Cup, and now the same source have confirmed that Milan are in the running to land him as are rivals Juventus.

However, they go on to add that Borussia Dortmund are keen on him too as they search for a player who can replace Jude Bellingham in the advanced midfielder role.
