Newcastle United are tracking the progress of one of the brightest stars from the Eredivisie this summer. The Magpies could be set to make a move for Mohammed Kudus, according to The Athletic.

However, Newcastle could face competition for the winger, with Arsenal also keeping tabs on the Ghanaian World Cup star.

Newcastle among clubs monitoring Kudus transfer updates

Ajax look set to lose the 22-year-old this summer, as he recently revealed that he would be searching for a move away from the Netherlands when the summer transfer window opens.

Kudus attracted a lot of attention throughout the January transfer window after impressing at the 2022 World Cup with Ghana. He made three appearances in Qatar, scoring twice.

His excellent performances have continued domestically in a troubling season for Ajax, as he has scored eleven goals and registered three assists in 29 matches in the Eredivisie.

Newcastle will be in the market for extra depth this summer after qualifying for the Champions League, and Kudus appears to tick a lot of boxes for Eddie Howe. But, the Magpies will face competition from Manchester United and Arsenal.
