Austrian defender of Ghanaian descent Kevin Danso
Austrian defender of Ghanaian descent Kevin Danso has helped Tottenham Hotspur win the 2025 Europa League title.
The tireless defender missed out on a starting role in the final against Manchester United on Wednesday, 21 May 2025.
However, he had the chance to play a part in the second half, coming on to replace Brennan Johnson in the 78th minute.
Tasked with injecting energy into the Tottenham Hotspur defence, Kevin Danso did just that and more.
He made several key clearances at the back and burst forward on a couple of occasions to support Spurs’ attack.
In the final at San Mamés in Bilbao, a solitary strike by Brennan Johnson in the 42nd minute, assisted by Pape Matar Sarr, made the difference for Tottenham, condemning Manchester United to a painful defeat.
Kevin Danso, who joined Tottenham on loan from RC Lens in the winter transfer window, celebrates winning the Europa League title for the first time in his career and will surely count his time at Spurs as a success.
