Ghana international Mohammed Kudus made his first-ever appearance for West Ham United in their away victory over Luton Town in the English Premier League on Friday night.

West Ham United maintained their unbeaten streak in the 2023/24 season's campaign after inflicting a 2-1 home defeat on Luton Town FC at the Kenilworth Road.

Kudus, who sealed a five-year move worth €45 million from Dutch Eredivisie giants Ajax to the Hammers last week, was introduced into the fixture on the 90th minute as replacement for Lucas Paquetá.

 

West Ham found the breakthrough shortly before half-time when Lucas Paqueta's tantalising cross was headed in by Bowen, although Luton goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski may feel he should have done better as he parried the shot over the line.

 

Kurt Zouma scored West Ham's second in the closing stages with a header from a James Ward-Prowse corner.

 

Luton's first shot on target came in the 92nd minute and set up a tense finish when defender Mads Andersen headed in, but the Hammers held on for victory.
