We know what you doing but bidding war won’t start until another 12 months.

He’s about as reliable as Old Traffords roof btw
@Perkinz9 added:
Didn’t know Liverpool were time travellers and could activate a release clause that isn’t active until next year. Also, if they want him now, Sullivan will be slapping a healthy 115m+ on his head
Kudus wins Goal of the Season award
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that one of Kudus' goals in the 5-0 thrashing of German Bundesliga side SC Freiburg in the Europa League Round of 16 stage won him the Goal of the Season award.
The first of his two goals on the night was an impressive solo effort. He picked up the ball in his half, dribbled past two Freiburg players, and remarkably planted the ball into the net with his right foot.
