      Kudus, 22, has enjoyed a stellar season in the Dutch capital – scoring 18 times in all competitions.
      The versatile forward came close to joining Everton last summer.
      But he now has the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle on his tail.
      Kudus, also being watched by Tottenham, has already revealed his desire to move to the Premier League.

      And a transfer now looks imminent after Kudus’ agent confirmed he has turned down a new contract offer from Ajax.
      Jennifer Mendelewitsch claims interest in her client is extremely high after he also starred for Ghana at the World Cup.
      And Kudus wants to strike while the iron’s hot as Prem giants circle for his signature.
      Mendelewitsch told De Telegraaf: “I think it is best for both Ajax and Mohammed that he makes a transfer now.

      “Now is the right time. He has ignored a proposal to extend his contract until the summer of 2026.
      “What I can say is that after the World Cup and this season there is a lot of interest in Kudus.”
      One man who feels Kudus can be a smash hit in England is Dutch legend Marco van Basten – who is adamant the forward is better than £83million Man Utd winger Antony.
      Van Basten told Ziggo Sport: “I find Mohammed Kudus a much better football player than Antony.
      “Antony has his skills but he is confused with the things he is trying to do.
      “Kudus has much better technique and knows what he is doing. Antony may be faster but Kudus is smarter and more technical.
      “He is much more of a footballer, you can place him anywhere on the pitch, an all-rounder for the team.
      “In fact, I like him much better than Antony. He’s more fun to watch play.” More

      Now L’Equipe claim talks have taken place between the Old Trafford club and Paris Saint-Germain over the possible blockbuster transfer.
      It is suggested the French giants are open to selling the world’s most expensive footballer – which could leave Kylian Mbappe as the undisputed main man at the club with Lionel Messi also set to depart the Parc des Princes.
      And the report adds that one key United man is doing his bit to lure Neymar to Manchester.
      Casemiro plays with the £198million superstar for the Brazil national team – along with current United men Antony and Fred.

      And as his incredible debut season draws to a close, he is hoping to have another big impact by convincing Neymar to make the switch so they can play alongside each other at club level, too.
      Neymar, 31, is undoubtedly one of the most talented footballers of his generation and would bring plenty of flair and trophy-winning experience to Erik ten Hag’s squad.
      One Red Devils fan labelled their instrumental midfielder “Agent Casemiro” for his tactics.
      However, reports suggest as many as four Premier League clubs are chasing after Neymar’s signature – including Champions League-bound Newcastle.

      The injury-hit PSG forward has managed 13 goals and 11 assists in just 20 Ligue 1 games this season.
      However, he turns 32 next season and currently earns a staggering £600,000-plus per week under his current contract that runs until 2025.
      And other supporters want Casemiro to tap up fellow Brazilian sensation Vinicius Junior instead of Neymar.
      The Real Madrid winger is in red-hot form but could be looking to leave Spain after the latest horrific onslaught of disgusting racist abuse.

      “But they know it is crucial to reach a full agreement with the player also on the final details to avoid any potential competition from other clubs with Mauricio Pochettino a big fan of Mac Allister.” More

      Messi was joint top scorer in Qatar as he led his country to the trophy for a third time.
      And Martinez played a key role in the triumph as he was the hero in two penalty shoot-outs and received the Golden Glove for best keeper.
      Now Messi is weighing up his options as he prepares to make what could be the final move of his club career.
      He is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season after two years, having been booed by his own fans last month.

      The Barcelona legend has been linked with a move back to the Catalan giants, although it is unclear whether they will be able to afford his wages.
      Messi has also reportedly received a lucrative £350million-a-year offer from Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal.
      But Martinez has come out and offered to reduce his wages in order to bring his fellow countryman to the Midlands.
      He told ESPN: “If they are whistling Messi, I would bring him here… at Villa.

      Villa are in line for a Europa Conference League place next season as they sit seventh in the Premier League table.
      But a move for Messi remains a somewhat fanciful dream as the Argentine approaches the final stages of his career.
      After PSG handed him a two-week suspension for missing training due to a trip to Saudi Arabia, the Ligue 1 champions’ fans booed him upon his return to the side.
      And the fractured relationship between Messi and the club has brought an end to any discussions about him extending his stay in the French capital. More

      The Austrian midfielder has made a good impact since his January loan move from Bayern Munich.
      Sabitzer, 29, has three goals in 18 appearances under Erik ten Hag.
      But injury means his season is already over – and potentially his Red Devils career.
      United are keen on making several big signings this summer.

      And money is tight amid an ongoing takeover saga.
      However, should Ten Hag wish to keep Sabitzer past his loan, Sky Sports says it will cost him £22m.
      Bayern boss Thomas Tuchel does not have the ex-RB Leipzig star in his plans for next season.
      And the Germans are more than open to doing business as they prepare a mini-rebuild.

      But Red Devils fans do not appear to be keen on keeping Sabitzer permanently as they reacted to the news.
      One said: “Good player but always injured, then useless. Bayern knows this and wants to sell.”
      Another declared: “No thanks, he’s done a job but has hardly justified a permanent move.”
      One noted: “Bayern bought him for £12m, barely played him and now want nearly double. Joke.”
      Another added: “Good stop-gap while Eriksen was injured but can’t see the need for him.” More

      During his stint in England, he registered just four goals in 27 games for Stoke, before he joined Newcastle where he hit the back of the net on seven occasions across two seasons.
      But since heading back to his home country, Joselu has impressed in LaLiga.
      His 36 goals in 113 appearances for Alaves earned him a move to Espanyol.
      And while the Catalan club are battling relegation, he has still managed to net 16 times in 34 appearances this season.

      Joselu, who scored twice in two appearances for Real Madrid in 2011, was also called up to the Spain squad in March – where he netted twice on his debut against Norway.
      According to Relevo, he is now the subject of interest from Real Madrid as they seek competition for star striker Karim Benzema.
      Carlo Ancelotti’s men are set for a disappointing season after being beaten to the league title by Barcelona and suffering a Champions League semi-final exit at the hands of Manchester City.
      They did win the Copa del Rey, but that is not expected to satisfy Real bosses.

      And Los Blancos bosses are discussing the idea of bringing Joselu in to support the talismanic Frenchman.
      The Spanish international’s contract with Espanyol runs until 2025.
      He was signed on a free transfer last summer after his Alaves deal expired.
      Meanwhile, three defeats in five LaLiga games have seen Real Madrid drop below Atletico Madrid to third in the table. More

      Man City ready to meet Gundogan’s new deal demands after being sparked into action by Arsenal transfer interest

      MANCHESTER CITY aim to keep Ilkay Gundogan out of Arsenal’s clutches by getting him to agree on a new deal.Gunners manager Mikel Arteta wants a reunion with the  Etihad skipper who he worked with when he was Pep Guardiola’s No 2 up until 2019.

      The German’s City contract expires at the end of the season and early talks failed to find an agreement.
      Barcelona indicated they were willing to offer him a two-year deal and Gundogan was holding out for a similar offer from his current club.
      The stand-off alerted Arsenal, who ran the champions close in the title race, to the possibility they could bring him to the Emirates for free this summer.
      However, there is now optimism that a compromise can be reached which will see him extend his seven-year stay at the Etihad.
      READ MORE MAN CITY NEWS
      The deal proposed by City is believed to be structured differently to the one he has been offered at the Nou Camp but is closer to what he was looking for.
      And if he does stay, it would be a timely boost for Guardiola who has regularly stated wants the German – his first signing at City back in 2016 – to stay.
      Gundogan scored twice in each of his last two league starts – against Leeds and Everton – to put them on the brink of a third straight title.
      He lifted the trophy at the weekend despite not getting on against Chelsea – and is now hoping to get his hands on two more before the season finishes.

      The feeling is Guardiola would have thrown his captain on for a few minutes at the end to say his goodbyes if he had thought it was going to be his Etihad farewell.
      His situation has taken on increasing importance with summer target Jude Bellingham expected to join Real Madrid rather than the English champs.
      Guardiola is looking to strengthen his midfield this summer with Chelsea’s Mateo Kovacic one name under consideration along with Celta Vigo’s Gabri Veiga.
      Brighton’s World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister is also a player the Etihad chief admires – although he is expected to join Liverpool.
      Meanwhile, City remain in talks with teen defender Rico Lewis over a new deal – but are yet to finalise terms.
      The 18-year-old full-back showed his versatility and quality again during the 1-0 win over Chelsea on Sunday and has been praised by Guardiola for his contribution to the title success. More
