Kudus could reunite with former manager, Erik ten Hag, having worked with the Dutch tactician for two seasons in the Eredivisie.

The Ghana international is also reported to be on the radar of several top clubs in Europe including French champions, Paris Saint-Germain.

Kudus became a hot prospect after his explosive performances for the Black Stars at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar last year, scoring two goals in three matches.

He joined Ajax in the summer of 2020 but injuries blighted his start to life in Holland, limiting him to few appearances in the first two season.

However, he is now a key member of the Dutch giants.

Chris Hughton praises 'gifted' Kudus

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Chris Hughton stating Kudus is among the most gifted players of the new generation of Ghanaian footballers.

The Black Stars coach is amazed by the versatility of the Ajax midfielder, following the west Africans' AFCON qualifiers against Angola.

Kudus was certainly not at his best during the two legs of the tournament qualifiers but his free kick led to the winner in the Kumasi leg.

Sports Brief also reported on Kudus revealing his Ajax ambitions despite interest from English Premier League giants, Manchester United.

The 22-year-old Ghanaian midfielder has been linked with a move to Old Trafford after steller displays in the Dutch Eredivisie this season.

Kudus has scored 18 goals across all competitions for the Amsterdam club this term, making him one of the most desired players in Europe.
