Moyes

West Ham United manager David Moyes has expressed that Mohammed Kudus will start in the first eleven squad since joining the Premier League team.

According to David Moyes, West Ham United need players who can make a difference when called upon and Kudus is one of them close to be named to his starting lineup in the Premier League.

Kudus has made five substitute appearances, making a huge impact in West Ham’s recent encounter before the international break by scoring his first Premier League goal to secure a draw against New Castle United.

In a press conference on Friday, Moyes stated that “ He is very close to playing. But to be fair to him, he was close when he arrived. Sometimes players come in at different levels of fitness and you need time to assess their condition but Mo could play now, and he had been playing.”

The former Manchester United Manager, added “He’s been representing Ghana, and his performance as aa substitute against Newcastle had a significant impact on us. That’s precisely what we need. We require more than eleven called upon can make a difference.” as quoted by Goal Africa.

Despite starting his first game for the team in the Europa League, Mohammed Kudus is looking forward to making his Premier League first team start when West Ham faces Aston Villa on Sunday.
