Mohammed Kudus and Micky van de Ven have put their differences behind them in a funny video shared by Tottenham following the Ghana international’s switch to Spurs.
Mohammed Kudus has become Tottenham’s third signing of the summer, joining from West Ham in a £55m deal, and becoming the first player to make the move from the Hammers to Spurs in 14 years.
It has since been revealed that despite interest from a host of Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal, Kudus only ever had eyes for Tottenham.
The winger’s arrival now means that Thomas Frank has almost an embarrassment of riches out wide, with competition for places in Tottenham’s front three set to heat up.
Tottenham teammates Mohammed Kudus and Micky van de Ven put aside their differences
Kudus may have anticipated an awkward first meeting with Van de Ven and Pape Sarr after the former West Ham man shoved both Spurs players in the face in last year’s London derby.
That was after the winger had left a foot on the Dutch defender while going in for a challenge, which led to a confrontation between the two sets of players.
The Ghana international was shown a red card after the intervention of VAR, which was the only time he got sent off in his two years at West Ham.

However, Tottenham’s social media admin has decided to ease the tension and the awkwardness by making a funny video of the newest Spurs signing ‘shaking hands’ with Van de Ven.
Kudus explains why he wanted to join Spurs
The Ghanaian has already become a fan favourite with Spurs fans, even before he has kicked a ball, given how West Ham supporters are raging at their club for selling Mohammed Kudus to Tottenham.
In his first interview as a Spurs player, Kudus revealed that Tottenham’s history and the size of the club attracted him to N17.
The winger also admitted that he loves getting fans off their feet by producing exciting moments and insisted that he is focused on Spurs’ objectives as a team rather than individual goals.
