Many Liverpool fans were undoubtedly impressed by Mohammed Kudus’ performances when we faced Ajax earlier this season and he has carried this level of performance into the World Cup.
As reported by Fabrizio Romano for CaughtOffside, it seems that we have a real interest in the attacker: ‘The same [Liverpool recently sending their scouts to watch] It has happened with Mohammed Kudus while he was playing for Ajax’.
In 23 appearances in all competitions this season, the 22-year-old has scored 12 times and registered two assists, but it has been his most recent two appearances and goals for Ghana that have further raised his profile.

Being able to play in midfield and as part of a forward line shows the versatility of the former Nordsjaelland player and may even make it more likely that we will make a move, due to his ability to operate in midfield.
However, it’s fair to say that he looks a lot more dangerous when deployed in more of an attacking position, this being an area we’re also well supplied for at the moment.
With two and a half years remaining on his current contract, we could get a relatively cheap deal for the player, but the high profile performances in Qatar may put a damper on these plans.
However, the news that we have sent out scouts to observe both Kudus and Cody Gakpo is exciting and shows that we may be willing to add another attacker to the team.
