Chris Hughton has stated that the player's talent is evident which is why it is normal for clubs to pursue his services.
“He [Kudus] is a player of interest. There is no doubt and I know there was interest last season [from] Everton,” Hughton told TalkSPORT on Tuesday.
“He is a player that will always show interest from clubs. He is young and has super abilities and also has that flexibility,"
“Premier League interest in Mohammed Kudus is no surprise,” he added.
