Chelsea has made contact with Ajax to express an interest in signing Ghana international superstar Mohammed Kudus according to The Athletic.

Kudus remains as one of the options the English Premier League giants are considering this summer, and agreement on personal terms is close.

Kudus, who has two years remaining on his existing contract with Ajax, is keen on leaving the Johan Cruyff Arena, having an extension in April.

The 22-year-old scored 18 goals and provided seven assists in 42 appearances in all competitions for Ajax last season.
