Schmeichel questioned the transfer choice, favoring Kudus over Antony and stating, “There’s something about that boy [Kudus], he’s special. I don’t get it, if he [Ten Hag] knows these boys very well, why did he pick Antony ahead of Kudus?” As West Ham gears up to face Arsenal on Thursday, December 28, 2023, Kudus is determined to maintain his impressive form.
Furthermore, Kudus is expected to play a pivotal role for the Black Stars in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) scheduled to take place in Ivory Coast next month. His multifaceted contributions continue to captivate fans and experts alike, solidifying his status as a rising star in the English Premier League.
