Former Ghana national team coach Chris Hughton has declared Mohammed Kudus the signing of the summer, insisting Tottenham Hotspur struck gold when they snapped up the Ghanaian star in a £55 million deal that is already looking like a bargain.
Spurs brought in seven new faces during the window, but none have hit the ground running like Kudus, who has not only settled instantly in North London but has muscled his way into WhoScored’s Team of the Season so far.
Hughton, speaking to Flashscore, couldn’t hide his admiration for the move—both on the pitch and in the boardroom.
“I think it was an excellent signing. The deal made a lot of sense financially. Tottenham needed a player of his profile. It’s a big stadium, a big stage, and he’s started his Tottenham career very well. He fits seamlessly into a system that favours crosses into the box.”
Kudus arrived after a mixed spell at West Ham, where an explosive start fizzled into inconsistency. But under Thomas Frank at Spurs, the 24-year-old looks reborn, freer, sharper, and more confident.
Frank encourages him to express himself, even when he loses the ball, a freedom that is unlocking the very best version of the Ghanaian playmaker.
Tottenham’s rivals may look back and wonder how they let Kudus slip through their fingers. For now, Spurs fans can simply enjoy the show.
