wontumionlineSports, , , ,
Ghana face South Korea in a must-win match for the Black Stars, who need a win to get their campaign back on track after a controversial defeat to Portugal in their opener last Thursday in Doha.

Similarly, Portugal handed them another defeat last Thursday and they would have to redeem themselves against South Korea to keep their qualifying dream alive. The Black Stars…

wontumionlineSports,
Black Stars midfielder, Mohammed Kudus, has said he does not think Brazilian star player, Neymar is better than him.

He’s just a higher profile player, that’s all,” Kudus told Ghanaian journalist Gary Al-Smith in an interview. The Ghanaian player, however, believes with hard work and determination he would get to Neymar’s level soon. “...What makes him better, for now, is that he has achieved a lot, but “I’ll get there soon.” Kudus and Neymar met in…

‘It’s An Inspiration To Do More’ – Mohammed Kudus Reacts To Messages From Right To Dream

wontumionlineSports, , ,
Ajax midfielder, Mohammed Kudus, says seeing people appreciate his progress and performances always pushes him to get better and serve as a source of motivation. Kudus was a product of the Right to Dream academy in Ghana before leaving for Nordsjaelland, where his outsanding perfromances saw him earn a move to Dutch side, Ajax. With injuries slowing down his speedy progress in his first two season with the Eredivisie side, the Ghanaian looks a man reborn in the 2022/23 season, scoring seven goals and providing an assist across all competitions. His heroics included scoring in back-to-back games in the UEFA…

Black Stars Technical Team Should Consider Kudus For False Nine Role – Ibrahim Tanko

wontumionlineSports, ,
Former assistant coach of the Black Stars, Ibrahim Tanko, has advised the technical team of the national team to give consideration to deploying Mohammed Kudus as a false nine.

With the Black Stars’ striking option looking far from convincing despite the addition of Inaki Williams, Tanko, who once played for Ghana, has asked Otto Addo to give Kudus the false nine role. “Kudus is a very talented player. He can play in many…

Black Stars midfielder, Mohammed Kudus, was in scintillating form for Ajax in their UEFA Champions League opener against Rangers.

The Ghanaian settled in as a false 9 in Wednesday’s encounter at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam. The 22-year-old set up Steven Berghuis in the 32nd minute with a beautiful piece of skill to extend Ajax’s lead to two goals after Edson Alvarez headed in the opening goal of the game.

‘I’m not sure if it’s time for Mohammed Kudus to move from Ajax’ – George Boateng

wontumionlineSports,
The assistant head coach of the Black Stars, George Boateng, says he is uncertain whether the time is right for Mohammed Kudus to move to Everton from Ajax. The midfielder has been heavily linked with a move away from the Eredivise side after an unsatisfactory start to the season. Kudus has played just 29 minutes from four games this season, a decision that has not gone down well with the Ghanaian after an excellent pre-season. With just away from the close of the transfer window, Boateng says he is ‘unsure’ if it’s the right moment for Kudus to leave. “In…
