Chelsea are set to compete with their Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur to secure a transfer for West Ham star Mohammed Kudus. The Blues have already signed Liam Delap from Ipswich Town and are now closing in on signing Joao Pedro from Brighton and Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund. Earlier this month, the Hammers had received a £50 million ($68m) bid from Spurs.
West Ham have made a decision on Michail Antonio's future after the forward's devastating car accident last year. Antonio's current contract at West Ham expires at the end of this month and the player is likely to leave the club as a free agent after 10 years. The 35-year-old is still recovering from his injuries, though he made an appearance for Jamaica in the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
West Ham are reportedly searching for a replacement for Mohammed Kudus and have zeroed in on Nice forward Evann Guessand. This development has put several Premier League giants Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham on red alert as they remain keen on prying away the Ghanaian from the Hammers during the summer transfer window.
