Arsenal have an ace in their sleeve in their bid to persuade Mohammed Kudus to join the club in the January transfer window.
Gunners manager, Mikel Arteta is counting on Thomas Partey to convince his international teammate to sign for the club.
Kudus has been one of the standout players in the ongoing World Cup in Qatar. The 22 year old has scored two goals, provided an assist and bagged one man of the match award in Ghana’s opening two games.
Serie A giants AC Milan and English side Liverpool have all sent scouts to monitor the midfielder at the global showpiece.
But Arsenal are looking to jump ahead of the queue as they look to bolster their midfield option in the winter market.
Saka and Ramsdale were teammates before meeting at club level as they were both called for England in the summer ahead of the 2020 European Championships. Arsenal could follow a similar pattern with Partey, in order to help the Gunners hijack Liverpool’s ideal January transfer.
Kudus is currently under contract with Dutch side Ajax.
