West Ham United expect the situation surrounding Mohammed Kudus' future to be resolved this week, with both Tottenham and Chelsea preparing formal offers for the Ghanaian international.

Kudus, 24, returned for pre-season but declined to take part in full training—a decision the club confirmed was at the player's request.

Sources within West Ham say the attacker does not want to risk injury as he pushes for a move.

Tottenham are currently leading the race and are the player's preferred destination, although Chelsea have also shown strong interest.
