‘I wish we got’: Pundit says he wishes Arsenal signed 23-year-old West Ham player
Under Arsene Wenger it became almost a running joke that Arsenal tried and failed to sign a number of big name players over the years, and that trend has continued.
Before his move to West Ham, Arsenal were strongly linked with a move for West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus, and now, it seems like missing out on the Ghanaian was a big mistake.Indeed, Kudus is now ripping it up at West Ham, and speaking on the Handbrake Off Podcast, Adrian Clarke has now said that he wishes Arsenal had signed the 23-year-
Clarke wishes Arsenal signed Kudus
The pundit shared his verdict on the West Ham star.
“The player I kind of wish we got who would’ve been a great backup to Saka and to Jesus was Kudus at West Ham, he plays up top for them and on the right wing and he’s ripping it up in the Premier League, somebody of his ilk would be good,” Clarke said.
What a player
Kudus has surpassed all expectations since signing for West Ham, and it has to be said that he looks every bit good enough to play for a top side like Arsenal.
The Gunners had their chance to get Kudus, but they passed up the opportunity, and now, they would have to pay a huge sum if they wanted to get the attacker out of West Ham.
As ever, Arsenal’s loss is another team’s gain, and it has to be said that Kudus is proving to be one of the best signings in the Premier League this season.
Whether or not Arsenal can uncover another Kudus-esque gem remains to be seen, but they could really do with this type of player to act as a backup to Bukayo Saka.
Arsenal will surely be regretting not getting this deal done when they had the chance.
