Chelsea forward Cole Palmer has heaped praise on West Ham United forward Mohammed Kudus, describing him as one of the most skilful players in the Premier League.
The England international, who has been a standout performer for Chelsea since his move from Manchester City, included Kudus in his top three most skilful players in the league, alongside Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze and Manchester City’s Phil Foden.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Palmer was quick to acknowledge the Ghanaian’s quality when deliberating his picks.
“Kudus is very good, like very, very good,” he said. “Just on skills, I’ll put Kudus third. (But) I like everything about Kudus’ game. He’s fast, strong, technically good. Yea, I think he’s a very, very, very good player.”
Kudus, who joined West Ham from Ajax last summer, has quickly established himself as one of the club’s key players.
The Ghanaian international has impressed with his dribbling, pace, and goal contributions, helping West Ham compete strongly in both the Premier League and European competitions last season.
Despite a slow start to the season, Palmer’s comments highlight the growing recognition of Kudus’ impact in English football.
