According to a source close to David Sullivan, the main owner of West Ham, Mohammed Kudus has a release clause that will excite Liverpool.
Even if he does sign with the Reds, the Hammers will still have plenty of time to enjoy their star player.
Despite Mohammed Kudus’ recent summer transfer to West Ham, vultures such as Liverpool are already circling.
The exceptional Ghanian has performed admirably since transferring from Ajax for a steal of £38.5 million.
Liverpool obviously feels the same way, based on recent reports.
The West Ham attacker, who overcame Liverpool on Saturday to become the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to reach 100 takeaways, has been strongly linked to the Reds.
Regarding Kudus and a purported release provision in his contract, there have been allegations and denials.
According to rumors at the time of his West Ham signing, he decided to sign with the Hammers rather than Brighton because David Sullivan and company agreed to include a release clause.
Liverpool was linked to Kudus, the West Ham star boy.
It’s anyone’s guess as to whether and how much of that is accurate.
However, it hasn’t stopped Liverpool from being mentioned, particularly in light of recent uncertainty surrounding Mohamed Salah’s future at Anfield.
Claret and Hugh claim that David Ornstein claimed there was a Kudus release clause in a recent video update.
Top Hammers sources were contacted by that website for explanation, but they refused to comment.
Concerning the purported clause, Hammers News also contacted the top source inside the boardroom; ominously, they were treated with the same unyielding silence.
Liverpool will be happy with Sullivan’s confidant’s allegation that Kudus has a release clause, but West Ham still has time.
In the Premier League encounter between West Ham United and Liverpool, Mohammed Kudus of the former team faces off against Trent Alexander-Arnold of the latter.
Claims about Kudus’ release clause will thrill Liverpool.
Sullivan and vice-chair Karren Brady are two of Sean Whetstone’s contacts.
When he contacted club sources regarding Liverpool possibly triggering a release clause in Kudus’ contract, he also allegedly encountered radio silence.
However, he has provided clarity on the problem, if any, which is good news for the Hammers in the short and long terms for Liverpool.
Because West Ham will cling onto their star player until at least next summer, clause or not.
Whetstone stated, “There has been much discussion regarding Hammer Mo Kudus’s release clause, with club sources remaining silent on the matter.”
“However, West Ham supporters shouldn’t give up because their release clauses don’t go into effect until the third transfer window after they are signed.
“That is to say, if a release clause is present in the Kudus case, it won’t take effect until July 2025.”
