The Hammers are in the midst of a hugely disappointing season. Despite lavishly splashing the cash on new signings last summer, the campaign has been a complete write-off.

Julen Lopetegui was sacked in January and replaced by Graham Potter. Recruitment chief Tim Steidten subsequently left his role as well. However, the early optimism under Potter has now also given way to frustration after a dire 1-1 draw with already-relegated Southampton.

West Ham have failed to win their past seven Premier League outings, so it is clear that Potter needs to oversee a rebuild this summer. To that end, funds will be required, and West Ham may have to cash in on some of their most prized assets.

Indeed, CaughtOffside now claims that the East London club will look to sell star attacker Mohammed Kudus in the upcoming window in a bid to raise funds for new incomings.

Kudus available for bargain fee?

The Ghana international has been unable to replicate his amazing debut season this term, with his goal tally for the season currently standing at just three. Despite this, Kudus remains highly rated.

Indeed, Saudi giants Al-Nassr have been heavily linked with the 24-year-old in recent weeks, and there has even been talk of a bid in the region of €100 million. In fact, some have claimed that Kudus could fetch as much as €120m.

Kudus is understood to have a €100m release clause in his contract, but TEAMtalk asserts that the Hammers could be open to cashing in on him for a fee around €70m this summer.

This, in conjunction with West Ham making him available, has put the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool all on red alert as they look to bolster their attacking options.
