Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank (L) and Mohammed Kudus (R)
Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank has praised Mohammed Kudus’ impact on the right wing of his team’s attack, arguing that it is the reason why the Ghana star is the preferred starter on matchdays.
Kudus, 25, joined Spurs in the summer transfer window from fellow English Premier League side West Ham United.
Working under Thomas Frank, the Black Stars sensation regularly starts on the right wing and has established himself as one of the key attackers in the team.
Speaking to the press ahead of Tottenham’s clash against AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League, the manager explained why he prefers to start Mohammed Kudus ahead of other important wingers in his team.
“Brennan is a very important player, a fantastic, important goal last season. Also. the top scorer. He started the season well, scored two good goals so, again, probably a little bit down to how do we put the players out that make it fit. Brennan has trained very well the last couple of weeks, doing what he’s doing very well, scoring goals in training, which is important to keep showing that I’m not taking the right decision if he’s not in the team. I think Brennan can play both to the left and to the right as we said before.
“Of course, Mo Kudus has done very well on the right for example, and then on the left I actually think Wilson has done well. It’s just a little bit of competition. Brennan just needs to keep going, he will get his games,” Thomas Frank said.
Having travelled with the Tottenham Hotspur team to France on Tuesday, Mohammed Kudus is expected to start against AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, October 22. The match is scheduled to kick off at 7 pm.
