Mohammed Kudus Eyes Return from Injury as West Ham Face Bournemouth

After weeks of absence and growing concern, Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus is on the brink of returning to action for West Ham United as they prepare to host Bournemouth in Premier League matchweek 31 this Saturday.

Kudus missed the Hammers’ 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Tuesday due to a recent injury setback. However, there’s a glimmer of hope for the East London club, as the 23-year-old resumed light training on Wednesday, raising the possibility of his inclusion in the weekend squad.

Speaking ahead of the match, West Ham boss David Moyes offered a positive update: “Mo [Kudus] was in light training today and again has a chance.”

The former Ajax star has found this campaign more challenging compared to his debut season. Despite making 27 appearances, Kudus has managed only three goals and two assists, enduring a 13-game goal drought and serving a five-game suspension along the way.

With just a handful of matches left in the season, Kudus will be keen to rediscover his rhythm and end the campaign on a strong note — both for his club and to stay sharp for national duties with Ghana.
