West Ham United's midfield sensation, Mohammed Kudus, has become the focal point of a lively debate, intensified by none other than Ghana's Chris Hughton.
In an exclusive TalkSport interview, Coach Hughton unequivocally labeled Kudus as a "10," bestowing upon him the esteemed title of an outstanding playmaker.
This assertion adds a new layer to the ongoing discourse about the optimal position for the talented player and the corresponding role he should assume on the field.
Kudus, who made a high-profile switch from Dutch powerhouse Ajax to West Ham United this summer, has seamlessly adapted to English football, leaving an indelible mark.
Hughton remarked, "He’s a very talented player, there’s no doubt. The type of player he is, you look at him as a 10 because he’s a goal scorer, you want to get him close to goal, but he has had good success playing on that right-hand side (as a winger)."
With an impressive tally of nine goals and contributions to 14 more in just 24 appearances across all competitions, Kudus continues to showcase his versatility and impact on the pitch.
