Emmanuel Ayamga has high hopes for Kudus at the AFCON
Renowned sports journalist Emmanuel Ayamga, in a conversation with YEN.com.gh, stated that Kudus is likely to play a huge role in Ghana's AFCON ambitions. He said:
I think Kudus has a crucial role to play if Ghana is to do well at the AFCON. I say this because, currently, he's undoubtedly the face of the team. His performances first at Ajax and now at West Ham United, have been flawless. The good thing is that Kudus does not struggle in a Ghana shirt. His goal record is very good.
