[Albion] Mohammed Kudus **Signed For West Ham 27/08**

He knew what he was signing up to.
We have a wage structure. Pay one player 100k then the rest want it. Once you start doing that you have a load of lazy players on big wages, see Leicester and leeds
He kind of did. But maybe not quite as he originally brought his transfer guru with him.
They were already in for him. Let them have him !!
I think that was just to keep him happy as he settled in, but he has publicly said how good our system is so he decided to let him go
Of course. They desperately need to save a bit of face.

How soon is now?
From what i've read, it sounds like Kudus is holding out for a bigger club and thus bigger wages. Otherwise he'd have moved by now, if(as reported) the deal was done between the clubs back in July.
Move on
Move on

In the Champions League and in the World Cup. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the stages come any bigger?
Indeed. Also, as a Brescia fan, I think he appreciates the type of club that we are and takes pride in what he can achieve on relatively limited resources. One day, maybe not that far away, he'll probably want to manage a Champions League club again but he'll give us this season at least and give it everything..

I said this on the ‘clearing the locker thread’ but maybe today may give Kudus some food for thought …
‘Given the whole circus that has taken place around this transfer, with accusations that we lock our players up, we have just debunked that myth. Once again showing that we can be trusted to build a players career.
This should therefore reassure players who think they need a release clause to rethink … if they had a release clause of £50m and were sold for there or thereabouts the wages would have corresponded. With the strength of our negotiating team realising great prices, this should follow with greater bargaining power for the players wages.
If this is a near record sale, I wonder if the terms that had been agreed weeks ago would have reflected a fee of that status?
Obviously gutted that he is leaving but clearly his heart isn’t it anymore, but hope that one positive from this is that we have shown we can be trusted and with patience if you are that good, you will reap the reward. (And so will we
)’

Apparently, Enciso took Number 10. The final confirmation that Kudus is not coming?

Looks like this is not happening now as (I am guessing) the number 10 was being kept back for him. Albion just announced Julio is getting 10 and Billiam Gilliamour getting 11.
Kudus' number is 20, which remains free.Apparently, Enciso took Number 10. The final confirmation that Kudus is not coming?

And of course tonight, this Sky reporter (230k followers) reports that we still want him, talks are ongoing and a fee with Ajax has yet to be agreed.
Remember, 999 out of 1,000.
