Kudus’ big move to Spurs opens doors for Ghanaian music stars
To make Kudus’ unveiling extra special, Tottenham turned to one of Ghana’s finest. Stonebwoy, known for his global appeal and consistent hits, was commissioned by the club to create a bespoke track for the moment.
Within 24 hours, the “Overlord” singer refixed his tune, transforming it into a tribute fit for North London’s newest star.
The song set the tone for Kudus’ welcome video and instantly caught fans' attention.
Spurs use King Paluta’s “Aseda” for Kudus' slideshow
Shortly after Stonebwoy’s unveiling anthem dropped, Spurs again dipped into Ghanaian soundscapes; this time choosing King Paluta’s breakout hit, Aseda.
The Premier League club used Aseda as the soundtrack for a TikTok slideshow showcasing Kudus in Tottenham colours. For Paluta, it was a surreal moment.
The 2025 TGMA Highlife Song of the Year winner was thrilled. He responded with a heartfelt message, congratulating Kudus on his six-year contract.
Spurs embrace Afrobeat, uses Fuse ODG's Sundiata song
Just days after the Aseda moment, another Ghanaian artist was featured by Spurs; this time, UK-based Afrobeats sensation Fuse ODG.
In a recent training montage shared on Instagram, Kudus and his teammates could be seen working in the gym and putting in shifts on the training ground.
The footage was backed by a modified version of Fuse’s latest track, Sundiata, a song that echoes the values of perseverance and ambition.
Fuse, a longtime supporter of Tottenham, seemed like the perfect fit for the club’s growing interest in African culture and rhythm.
Beyond the music, Kudus’ arrival at Spurs is a rare piece of Premier League history.
According to the BBC, he becomes the first player in over a decade to switch between London rivals West Ham and Tottenham. The last man to do so? Scott Parker, back in 2011.
