Mohammed Kudus has been one of Tottenham’s best players, but right now, he is injured and has just provided an update ahead of Manchester United.
Tottenham Hotspur romped to victory in North London as they defeated Copenhagen 4-0, with Micky van de Ven, Wilson Odobert, Joao Palhinha and Brennan Johnson all scoring.
Van de Ven scored a wonder goal in the Champions League, with a run that even Mohammed Kudus would have been so proud of.
But despite cruising to victory in the Champions League, Spurs will still hope their winger is back soon, and he has now issued the latest on his knock.
Mohammed Kudus is hopeful of facing Man United
Kudus has told the media his injury is ‘getting better’ and that he is hopeful of facing Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday.
Spurs host the Red Devils following their impressive European win and will be eager to do so with the Ghanaian winger in their squad.
Following the win over the Danish team, Kudus was asked whether he would be ready for the clash, to which he responded: “It’s getting better, yes.”
Kudus missed Tottenham training during midweek and was then absent from the win against Copenhagen.
Since his move from West Ham, Kudus has been a joy to watch, and he would have had a great time during the win on Tuesday evening.
Brennan Johnson was the player who replaced him in the team for the Champions League clash, with the Welsh international getting a goal, but also a red card.
Xavi Simons’ new form could be great news for Mohammed Kudus
Xavi Simons was superb against Copenhagen, and his display earned him the Champions League Man of the Match award.
The 22-year-old may have just turned a corner at Spurs, following what has been a tricky first couple of months in North London.
But in the Champions League, the youngster created several big chances, which a player like Kudus would have feasted on.
If Simons can continue to tick for Tottenham, having a player like Kudus around him could see both players’ games elevated to the next level.
