In a statement that’s sure to spark fierce debate among fans, former Ghana Football Association (GFA) Communications Director, Ibrahim Sannie Daara, has boldly declared that Mohammed Kudus is “more talented than Bukayo Saka.”

Speaking to 3Sports, Sannie Daara argued that the Ghanaian playmaker would be a guaranteed starter at any club he joins:

> “There is no team that Mohammed Kudus will go to and be on the bench… Kudus is more talented than Bukayo Saka.”

Kudus, who made an explosive impact at West Ham United with 19 goals in 80 appearances, has become one of the hottest names in this summer’s transfer window. Though Tottenham Hotspur remain front-runners for his signature, Chelsea and clubs in the Saudi Pro League are circling.

Spurs’ opening £50 million bid has already been rejected, with West Ham holding out for £85 million from Premier League suitors, per a release clause valid during the first 10 days of July. European sides may pay around £80m, while Saudi clubs would have to shell out a massive £120m.

The 24-year-old Ghanaian is said to favour a move to Tottenham and is determined to continue playing in European competitions next season.
