Arsenal fans convinced Premier League star will join club after he's spotted in Emirates box for PSG win

One of the Premier League's most in-demand players was in North London on Tuesday night to watch Arsenal's Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain.

Arsenal maintained their unbeaten start to the 2024/25 campaign as they secured all three points in their Champions League opener.

With 20 minutes on the clock, Kai Havertz put Mikel Arteta's side with his fifth goal of the season before stand-in captain Bukayo Saka doubled their lead from a free-kick.

Away from the in-game action and one of the biggest talking points online was the appearance of West Ham midfielder Mohammed Kudus, who watched on from the stands.

Kudus was linked with a host of clubs this summer, including Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, who held an interest in the player during his Ajax days.

Kudus' future has been a discussion point of late. A report from The Athletic detailed a 'frank exchange of words' between Julen Lopetegui and the Ghanaian at half-time as West Ham trailed 1-0 to Brighton.

In addition to the above, Kudus felt the criticism he received from Lopetegui was 'unfair', although club insiders claim the matter has been 'blown out of proportion'.

With all that being said, the midfielder's decision to visit the Emirates on Tuesday night has got people talking.

One fan wrote: "I predict that he will be an Arsenal player soon," whilst another commented: "Meanwhile Calafiori was at the Emirates to watch Arsenal in January too. Hmmm."

A third wrote: "We get him and we are set for some years to come. But could be expensive."

A fourth said: "Edu is working his magic again," and a fifth added: "I imagine he’s just there to watch Partey, but I guess we’ll never know."

Back in March, Kudus confirmed that he turned down a move to Arsenal before joining West Ham last year for a reported fee of £38 million.

Speaking to The Guardian, who mentioned Arsenal, Brighton and Chelsea as clubs who looked at Kudus last summer, the 24-year-old gave an insight into his mindset before signing for the Hammers.

"I was ready to make that step after the season I had at Ajax," he said.

"I'm a player who doesn't want to be in my comfort zone. I could have stayed at Ajax. I knew the league, I knew the club. But I don't want to be complacent and comfortable. I always want to challenge myself.

"All the clubs you mentioned, it's true they were in contact. But when West Ham came it moved fast and I made my decision based on speaking to people around the club, their project and how they see me as a player."

Kudus added: "I made the decision based on my gut feeling. That's how I make my decisions. Whatever the ramifications are, I take it upon myself."
