West Ham United striker Michail Antonio is confident Mohammed Kudus will serve his red card suspension and return much stronger and better.
“Starboy, his quality, to be fair, is unbelievable. He dribbles well, scores goals, and has great ambition. We could use more players with his qualities in our academy,” he told the press in a visit to Ghana.
“Although he’s missed five games, he’s a key player that we need back in our starting lineup. Things haven’t gone well this year, but I know he’ll come back fully ready to go.” he added
Kudus was sent off during West Ham’s match against Tottenham on October 19 after an altercation with Spurs players, resulting in a five-game ban and a £60,000 fine imposed by the English FA.
This suspension, initially set at three games but later extended, has seen Kudus miss recent matches against Manchester United, Nottingham Forest, and Everton.
He will also be absent for West Ham’s upcoming clashes with Newcastle United on November 25 and Arsenal on November 30.
