Chelsea in talks for Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus

Chelsea are in talks for Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus.

The Ghana international is close to agreeing personal terms with the Blues.

However, Chelsea are yet to make a first offer for Kudus, which is set to happen in the coming days.

Kudus' agent Jennifer Mendelewitsch told De Telegraaf: "I think it is best for both Ajax and Mohammed that he makes a transfer now.

"Now is the right time. He has ignored a proposal to extend his contract until the summer of 2026. What I can say is that after the World Cup and this season there is a lot of interest in Kudus."
