Former Black stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, has lauded Mohammed Kudus for his significant growth as a player.
In the final minute of the game against Newcastle United, Kudus came off the bench to score and earn a draw for West Ham. The midfielder for the Black Stars scored his first goal in the Premier League since moving from the London Olympic Stadium during the summer transfer window.
In the past, Gyan has berated Kudus for taking his time to release passes and find his teammates in favourable positions.
However, following his performance against the Magpies, the retired player was all praise for the former Ajax offensive midfielder. Below is what Gyan posted on X about Kudus;

“I have seen some big changes in Kudus play. He is beginning to understand how to move into spaces to receive the ball and releasing the ball at the right time. If he continues like this consistently, he will be a world class player,”
“The coach is managing him very well. I think the coach is convinced if he wants to start him in a premier league game,”
“I had the same situation when I moved to Sunderland. Fans didn’t understand why a record signing player should be coming on as a sub and kept proving himself. Steve Bruce made me understand that he didn’t want to put to much pressure on me and that the right moment will come. It came and I took it.”
