West Ham United manager David Moyes expressed disappointment over Mohammed Kudus’ absence in the match against Brighton. The Football Association reportedly prevented Kudus from playing for the Hammers due to his call-up for the Black Stars squad for AFCON 2023. Although Brighton’s Chris Hughton mentioned a knock as the reason for Kudus not reporting to camp early, Moyes believes the situation may have marked the last appearance for his African contingent before their departure for the tournament. Moyes highlighted the perceived unfairness, as other teams could field their African players.
