Mohammed Kudus believes he’s become the best in the world in one surprising key area of his game, after an impressive start at Tottenham Hotspur.
Kudus has enjoyed a near-perfect start to life at Tottenham Hotspur, with the Ghana international already registering four assists and a goal.
Jermain Defoe has been particularly pleased with the 25-year-old’s impact, even describing Kudus as the main man on Thomas Frank’s side.
However, despite his impressive start, the Ghana international still needs to improve several aspects of his game, though he believes he already stands out in one crucial area.
Tottenham’s Mohammed Kudus backs himself as the strongest player
When building his version of the perfect footballer, Mohammed Kudus surprisingly picked himself for strength.
The Ghanaian is by no means a weak player, though many would argue his biggest assets are his dribbling and flair rather than physicality.
Kudus has completed the most dribbles in the Premier League this season, ranking ahead of Man City’s Doku, and he even has a better dribbling stat than Yamal.

But for dribbling, Kudus chose Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal, while for the other categories, he named Lionel Messi for left foot, Neymar for right foot, Kylian Mbappe for speed, and Andres Iniesta for footballing intelligence.
Spurs handed boost as Kudus to miss AFCON
With Ghana failing to qualify for the upcoming AFCON, Tottenham have been handed an unexpected boost as Mohammed Kudus will remain available during a crucial part of their season.
While the news comes as a disappointment for the nation, Spurs will quietly welcome the development, given how influential Kudus has been under Thomas Frank since his arrival.
However, there is some consolation for Ghana, as they have secured qualification for the 2026 World Cup after finishing top of their qualifying group, and Kudus will be eager to carry his fine club form into that tournament when it comes around.
