Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus has caught the attention of English powerhouse Liverpool after his impressive displays for West Ham United. Since joining West Ham, the 23-year-old has notched up an impressive tally of 13 goals and six assists across all competitions.

Kudus made headlines last Sunday by becoming the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to complete over 100 successful take-ons. His stellar performances have put him on the radar of several clubs, including Liverpool, as they eye potential summer transfers.

Reports suggest that Kudus’ decision to join West Ham over Brighton was influenced by the presence of a release clause in his contract. Although his value has soared, the clause could still attract interest from Liverpool, given its terms.

However, any potential suitor will have to wait until the third transfer window to activate the clause, meaning Kudus can only be signed in 2025. While there is speculation about the existence of a release clause, club sources have remained tight-lipped on the matter.

West Ham fans can take solace in the fact that release clauses typically become active after the third transfer window following the player’s signing. Therefore, if Kudus does have a release clause, it won’t come into effect until July 2025.
