Mohammed Kudus: Football Profile, Club, Ghana Caps and Net Worth

Mohammed Kudus is a Ghanaian attacking midfielder and winger, born on 2 August 2000 in Nima, Accra. He joined Tottenham Hotspur on 10 July 2025 on a six year contract, for a reported GBP 55 million. His caps and goals for the Black Stars sit in the live module above. Soccer followers in South Africa, like football fans from Lagos to Kampala, know him mostly as a Premier League name, while Accra still claims him as the boy from Nima.

What follows covers every transfer with its year and reported fee, every wealth estimate with its outlet and date, and his Ghana record tied to a day on the calendar. The numbers that change after each match sit in the live modules above, so the copy should still be true next season.

Who Is Mohammed Kudus?

Mohammed Kudus is a Ghanaian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder and winger, and he is one of the leading attackers for Ghana. He was born on 2 August 2000 in Nima, Accra. The route from Strong Tower FC to the Premier League ran through one academy, then Denmark and the Netherlands. He joined Tottenham Hotspur in July 2025, and the live modules above carry his appearances and goals for this season.

The surname alone does most of the work in search bars across the continent. In Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa and Uganda he is simply Kudus, a Premier League name first and a Black Stars name second, while in Ghana the order is reversed. Where does he sit among African footballers of his generation? In my opinion, close to the front, and the awards support that view: Ghana Football Awards Footballer of the Year for 2023, then selection for the CAF Team of the Year in both 2023 and 2024.

Which Club Does Mohammed Kudus Play For? The Road From Nima

Kudus joined Tottenham Hotspur on 10 July 2025, signing a six year contract for a reported GBP 55 million, and that is the club the fixtures and results modules follow. The road there started at home, with Strong Tower FC from 2010 to 2012, followed by six years at the Right to Dream Academy from 2012 to 2018. His first professional move took him to Nordsjælland in Denmark in January 2018, and he stayed there until 2020.

Ajax signed him on 16 July 2020 for EUR 9 million on a five year deal, and Amsterdam is where the medals arrived. His first career trophy was the KNVB Cup, won on 18 April 2021, and he added the Eredivisie title in both 2020-21 and 2021-22. West Ham United then signed him on 27 August 2023, again on a five year deal. The fee was undisclosed, although reports put it at EUR 44.5 million (GBP 38 million) plus add-ons, which is roughly five times what Ajax had paid three years earlier.

Two seasons in east London ended with the move across the capital to Tottenham in July 2025. Each move of his career came with a larger reported fee than the one before it. That matters when you read the net worth section further down, because a rising fee tells you what clubs think a player is worth to them, and nothing about his bank balance. The table sets out each step with its date, and his Tottenham numbers stay in the live module because they change every matchday.

What Kudus Does on the Pitch

Kudus is an attacking midfielder who is just as comfortable starting wide, and his clubs and Ghana have used him in both roles. His game is built on carrying the ball past defenders in tight spaces and on shooting early when a gap opens. Picture a boy on a Nima side street slipping between parked cars and a passing crowd, and you have the general idea. As such, he tends to be the player a team looks for when a match needs something to happen.

His defining performances come with dates attached. He scored twice in Ghana's 3-2 win over South Korea at the 2022 World Cup, and twice more in a 2-2 draw with Egypt at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, played in January 2024. At club level, the KNVB Cup of April 2021 was his first trophy. It could be argued that the common thread is the size of the stage, since his best work has tended to arrive when the audience was largest.

Kudus and the Black Stars: How Many Caps and Goals?

Kudus's caps and goals for Ghana change with every international window, so use the live data module above for the running count. He made his senior debut in 2019 and scored his first Ghana goal against South Africa on 14 November 2019, which gives readers in Johannesburg and Durban their own small part in the story.

The tournaments are where the reputation was made. At the 2022 World Cup he scored twice in the 3-2 win over South Korea, and at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (played in January 2024) he scored both Ghana goals in the 2-2 draw with Egypt. Ghana went out in the group stage on both occasions, so those two braces stand as the high points of short campaigns. What would change the picture is a longer run, because goals like those carry more weight in a quarter final than in a group.

Then came the goal that mattered most to the country. On 12 October 2025, Kudus scored the only goal of a 1-0 win over Comoros in Accra, and it secured Ghana's place at the 2026 World Cup, the country's fifth finals, under coach Otto Addo. What he and the Black Stars did at the tournament itself is recorded in the results and records modules, and the fixtures module lists Ghana's matches. Perhaps that is the tidiest way to follow him, with the history written down here and the running numbers kept above.

Mohammed Kudus net worth

KickGH estimated Mohammed Kudus's net worth at around USD 6 million in 2025, and attributed it mainly to contracts, bonuses and endorsements without publishing a breakdown. An earlier figure sits close to it. Yen.com.gh carried an alleged EUR 6 million (USD 6.4 million) on 12 September 2023, a number it credited to another website. So, the two attributed figures are about USD 6 million from KickGH in 2025 and an alleged EUR 6 million from Yen.com.gh in 2023.

These are published estimates, never accounts, and no audited figure for his wealth exists. Why do the numbers differ? They were produced in different years, at different clubs and in different currencies, and neither outlet gives a breakdown. The Yen.com.gh figure dates from September 2023, around his move from Ajax to West Ham, while the KickGH estimate gives no breakdown that would show whether the Tottenham contract is counted. So, every figure above is best read as a rough marker of scale, in the way a house price guide is not a valuation.

What does he earn in salary at Tottenham? His contract runs for six years from July 2025, and KickGH gave no breakdown of wages, bonuses or endorsements, so no wage figure is repeated here as fact. In my opinion, an honest blank serves the reader better than a confident guess.

The working matters more than any single number. Transfer fees pass from one club to another, so the EUR 9 million, the reported EUR 44.5 million and the reported GBP 55 million were never his money. A wage is income, while net worth is what remains after spending, which means savings and property, less any debts. And, because the estimates are quoted in dollars and euros, readers thinking in naira, cedis, rand or shillings should convert at the rate on the day they read, since a fixed local figure would be out of date within weeks.

How to Watch Kudus From Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana and Uganda

Most readers follow Kudus through the Premier League, which reaches all five countries on pay TV and streaming. The fixtures module lists each Tottenham match with the broadcaster for your country, since rights are data that can change from one season to the next. Every kick off time is worth reading in all four zones at once: Ghana is on GMT, Nigeria on WAT (one hour ahead), South Africa on SAST (two hours ahead), and Kenya and Uganda on EAT (three hours ahead). So, an evening game at 19:30 GMT reads 20:30 WAT, 21:30 SAST and 22:30 EAT.

Black Stars matches work a little differently, because the broadcasters for internationals are not always those for the league and they vary by competition. Ghanaian fans follow him on international match days and at AFCON, and home matches in Ghana kick off on GMT, which means an evening start in Accra lands later at night in Nairobi and Kampala. The practical routine is simple enough: check the fixtures module for the date and the broadcaster in your zone before the match, then return to the caps and goals module after the final whistle to see whether his totals have moved.
