Mohammed Kudus' performance and statistics at West Ham

Just two years after arriving from Ajax Amsterdam, Kudus is set to part ways with West Ham United.

Initially, the Hammers were reluctant to let go of their prized midfielder for anything less than his £85 million release clause.

However, they eventually agreed to a £55 million deal, allowing Kudus to take the next step in his promising career.

During his time at the London Stadium, the former Right to Dream Academy graduate made 80 appearances across all competitions, tallying 19 goals and 13 assists, per Transfermarkt.

Prophet warned Kudus against joining Tottenham

Before Mohammed Kudus’ record-breaking transfer to Tottenham, a bold prophecy had surfaced.

Prophet Clement Testimony warned that the 24-year-old midfielder’s football path could be hindered if he joined a club with specific jersey colours.

According to the prophet, Kudus risked setbacks if he signed for a team with a blue or white home kit, Tottenham being a club known for its iconic white strip.

In the spiritual vision, the Ghanaian playmaker was said to be destined for greatness, possibly even Ballon d’Or contention, if he had joined a team in red, believed to be the colour aligned with his destiny.
