Tottenham Hotspur’s newest sensation, Mohammed Kudus, has made a confident declaration about his game — and it’s not what fans might expect.

The Ghanaian forward, who swapped West Ham United for Tottenham this summer, has been in electrifying form in the Premier League. After just seven appearances, he’s already won over Spurs fans with his goals, skill, and tenacity — including a crucial winner against Leeds United before the international break.

While many rave about his breathtaking dribbling — a skill that has earned him the top spot for dribbles attempted and completed in the league — Kudus believes there’s another aspect that sets him apart from everyone else.

> “When it comes to strength, I’m the best in the world,” the 24-year-old confidently stated while building his version of the perfect footballer.

Even football pundits have taken notice. Former England striker Peter Crouch recently described Kudus as “almost impossible to dispossess.” His dominance in duels backs it up — Kudus currently leads the Premier League with 55 duels won, underlining his remarkable physical presence.

When asked to assemble his ultimate player, Kudus chose:

Lionel Messi’s left foot

Neymar’s right foot

Kylian Mbappé’s speed

Andrés Iniesta’s football IQ

and for strength — himself.

It’s a claim that reflects both his self-belief and growing stature among football’s elite.

Meanwhile, Kudus continues to shine for Ghana’s Black Stars, scoring the decisive goal that sealed the nation’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. His strike against Comoros secured top spot in Group I, sending Ghana back to the world’s biggest stage.

With Kudus joining forces with Antoine Semenyo and Jordan Ayew, Ghana’s attack looks more dangerous than ever — rekindling hopes of another memorable World Cup run reminiscent of their legendary 2010 quarter-final finish.

To top it off, Kudus’ arrival in North London came with a cheeky welcome from teammate Richarlison, who posted a playful image referencing a fiery Tottenham–West Ham clash last season — proof that camaraderie (and a little banter) is already brewing at Spurs.
