Mohammed Kudus Signs for Tottenham Hotspur: A Game-Changing Transfer

In a blockbuster move that has sent ripples through the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur have officially announced the signing of Ghanaian star Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United on July 10, 2025, for a reported fee of £55 million (€63.8m).

 The 24-year-old versatile attacker has signed a six-year contract, marking him as one of Tottenham’s most significant acquisitions in recent history and the first direct transfer between the two London rivals since Scott Parker’s move in 2011.

A Statement Signing for Spurs

Tottenham’s acquisition of Kudus represents a bold statement of intent under new head coach Thomas Frank, who has prioritized adding dynamism and versatility to his attacking lineup.

 Kudus, who will wear the No. 20 shirt, is renowned for his ability to play across multiple positions, including right wing, left wing, number ten, and even centre-forward.

 His flair, dribbling ability, and knack for unlocking defenses make him a perfect fit for Frank’s vision of a high-energy, attacking side aiming to compete in the Champions League.

Kudus joined West Ham from Ajax Amsterdam in 2023 for approximately £37 million and quickly made an impact, contributing 14 goals and nine assists in his debut Premier League season.

 Despite a less prolific 2024-25 campaign, where he scored five goals and provided three assists in 32 matches, his potential remains undeniable.

 His former coach at West Ham, Edu Rubio, believes Kudus is tailor-made for Frank’s system, drawing comparisons to Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo for his directness and creativity.
