Tottenham Hotspur has officially announced the signing of Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus.
In a social media post on X on Thursday, July 10, Spurs shared his welcome video with a caption that read, "He only wanted Spurs. Welcome to North London, Mohammed Kudus."
The 24-year-old joins the North London side for a 55 million pound fee for his services in a six-year deal that was signed at the Tottenham Stadium.
Ghanaian forward Mohammed Kudus has been one of the most talked-about players in this transfer window.
The 24-year-old was being sought after by both European and Saudi clubs; however, it is reported that Kudus wants to play for a European club.
Among the prominent English clubs, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur appeared to be the front-runners in the race for the forward
However, it was reported that Kudus was more interested in the Spurs than the Blues.
The Ghana international winger was expected to stay with West Ham until 2028 after joining them in August 2023 from Ajax for a reported fee of €41.5 million, with an option to extend the deal by an additional year.
Despite concerns about his inconsistencies in the last campaign, Kudus impressed in his debut Premier League season, scoring 14 goals and providing six assists across all competitions.
During the 2024/25 season, Mohammed Kudus participated in three major competitions for West Ham United: the English Premier League, the FA Cup, and the EFL Cup (Carabao Cup).
In the Premier League, he made 32 appearances, scoring 5 goals and providing 3 assists. He featured once in the FA Cup but didn’t register a goal or assist. In the EFL Cup, he played twice and provided 1 assist without scoring.
Overall, across all competitions, Kudus made 35 appearances, scored 5 goals, and contributed 4 assists.
His standout performances in his debut season made him a prime target for several top clubs.
Tottenham’s interest in bolstering their attack does not end with Kudus, as the club continues to monitor Brentford forward Yoane Wissa.
Kudus’ move to Spurs adds to the growing presence of Ghanaian talent on the global stage and is expected to further elevate his profile ahead of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers.
