Mohammed Kudus Shares Preferred Position After Scoring in West Ham's Draw with Brighton

Kudus has been on a decent run of form this season, netting his third goal of the campaign to rescue a point for West Ham at the weekend against Brighton and Hove Albion.

The 24-year-old has been identified as a long-term replacement for the ageing Kevin De Bruyne.

Kudus' versatility could be an asset for City with the likes of Jack Grealish out of form. Kudus can play across all three positions up front and is very effective on the right.

City could face competition from league leaders Liverpool.

Guardiola admires Mohammed Kudus

The Spanish coach has never hidden his admiration for the Ghanaian, praising him before the final game of last season.

“Kudus is an exceptional player. Bowen for many years and Antonio, when he’s fit, is unbelievable. Paqueta is a top-class player in that he can do many things. That’s why. All four from nothing they can do something unique and special. That is my only concern right now," he said, as quoted by Pulse.
