Former Ghanaian international Augustine Arhinful has lauded the exceptional performance of midfielder Mohammed Kudus since his swift transition to the English Premier League.
Kudus has captured the admiration of football enthusiasts with his stellar displays in the Premiership, netting three goals since joining West Ham in the summer transfer window.
Notably, his impressive goal against Brentford earned him the coveted title of West Ham’s Goal of the Month for November.
Expressing his admiration for Kudus’ recent feats, Arhinful emphasized his lack of surprise, citing early concerns when the midfielder initially joined West Ham.
Arhinful expressed confidence in the coach’s strategic decisions, underscoring the manager’s foresight in utilizing Kudus effectively.
“I’m not surprised [at his recent performances] at all because when he first went to West Ham, we kept complaining about why the manager wasn’t using him.
The coach, who works daily with the team, knew what he was doing,” Arhinful affirmed in an interview with Joy Sports.
Highlighting the positive impact of Kudus on the national team, Arhinful voiced his hope for the midfielder’s continued success while expressing concern for his well-being.
He emphasized the importance of guiding and advising Kudus to ensure his sustained excellence on the field.
“If he plays well, he will also have a positive impact on our national team, so we must continue to guide him, advise him, and hope for the best for him,” Arhinful concluded, acknowledging Kudus’ potential to become a pivotal asset for both West Ham and the Black Stars.
The midfielder’s journey in the English Premier League has not only impressed spectators but has also stirred optimism for his contributions on the international stage.
