Kudus' sister reveals West Ham star's real character at home
In a candid moment, Maimunatu spoke about her brother's personality and what he’s really like when he’s home with family.
Far from the fearless footballer the world sees on match days, she revealed that the West Ham United star is quiet and reserved at heart.
“He [Kudus] is so fun to be with, but he is a shy person. If you are very close to him you will enjoy being with him,” she shared.
Maimunatu, who has been a steady force in Kudus’ journey, didn't stop there. She also offered a heartfelt prayer for her brother and other rising footballers chasing their dreams:
“May Allah keep blessing him. May Allah also bless the upcoming stars. May all their wishes come true.”

Her warm remarks follow closely on the heels of Kudus’ emotional return to Nima, the neighbourhood that shaped his early life.
On Sunday, June 29, the 24-year-old reconnected with childhood friends and aspiring talents at the Bazaki Football Tournament—a grassroots competition he helped organise in collaboration with his apparel sponsors, Skechers.
The following day, on Monday, June 30, Kudus paid a moving visit to his former school, Nima Basic 1.
It was a homecoming filled with smiles and purpose. He donated football gear, books, and educational materials to the current pupils.
Kudus plans youth project
Mohammed Kudus is working on opening a youth football centre in Accra. The academy will focus on helping young players grow their football skills while staying committed to school and discipline.
Sharing his thoughts on Mohammed Kudus’ community-focused initiative, Fitman Jaara, a sports journalist with Focus FM and the Daily Guide Network, told YEN.com.gh:
“Kudus is trying to give back by creating a space where kids can dream beyond their surroundings and stay clear of negative paths.
It’s not just about football talent, it’s about nurturing responsible individuals who can uplift their families and communities.
This project shows that his heart is still very much in Nima, and many believe it has the potential to impact generations.”

Top clubs monitor Kudus
Aside from Tottenham, other top European clubs are keeping an eye on Kudus this transfer window.
Teams in Germany and Italy admire his strong dribbling, quick thinking, and ability to play different roles in attack.
