July 8 According to reporter Damien Charles Lucas, in order to be able to transfer, Kudus has asked not to participate in West Ham's full training while waiting to leave the team to go to a new team. A West Ham spokesman said the matter will be resolved this week.

reported that as speculations that West Ham could reach a blockbuster deal with rivals from London, Tottenham or Chelsea continued to heat up, a major progress was made on the first day of pre-season training. There is no doubt that Kudus's idea has completely changed now. Previous reports said that if West Ham's valuation of the player's over £60 million was not met, they might keep Kudus.

West Ham and Tottenham have almost never traded players, and the relationship between the two clubs is very tense, whether on the court, on the stands, or on the board. This is also the fact that there has been no player transaction between the two clubs since 2001. But for now, Tottenham is ahead of Chelsea in the battle for Cudus.

Chelsea coach Maresca publicly acknowledged the team's interest in Kudus for the first time last weekend local time. As Maduaike approaches transfer to Arsenal, West Ham expects Chelsea to participate in the competition soon and makes a formal offer for Kudus.

Kudus's behavior on the weekend not only did not help his club, but also improved his image in the hearts of West Ham fans. In fact, Kudus's approach has angered West Ham fans, and there have been reports that he only wants to join Tottenham and rejected other clubs, including Chelsea. The move from West Ham to Tottenham will never be understood by fans.

Kudus insisted on joining Tottenham, which also weakened West Ham's advantage in negotiating with Tottenham's chairman Levi, who knew the players would not go to other teams.

To transfer this summer, Kudus joined ROOF brokerage. Despite all kinds of speculations from the outside world, on the first day of pre-season training, Kudus returned to West Ham to report and did some fitness and jogging training, but he missed the team's first training game. Videos released by the club's media team proved this, which seemed to indicate that the transfer is approaching.

West Ham appears to be protecting their players worth more than £60m from injury, especially when the club is in desperate need of funds to support Porter's signings. But now, the main spokesperson of the West Ham board of directors has revealed the truth. Before West Ham's match against Bournemouth, Kudus made a request to not participate in training because Tottenham and Chelsea became interested in him. While this won't satisfy fans, it may be the best option in the long run.

Some people question whether West Ham did not allow him to participate in training in order to prevent Kudus from being injured and affecting the transfer. After all, a similar situation also happened to Marik Diouf, because West Ham received a offer for him. However, West Ham United executives revealed that the reality is exactly the opposite. In fact, it was Kudus himself who asked not to participate in the full training because he was waiting to leave to join the new team. A West Ham spokesman said: "I don't think he wants to participate in training at the moment and the problem will be resolved this week."
