West Ham Manager David Moyes Bides for Time for Ghana Midfielder Mohammed Kudus

• David Moyes is confident Mohammed Kudus will make an impact at the club
• The Ghana international joined the Hammers in the summer transfer window
• Kudus made his home debut in the game against Manchester City on Saturday

David Moyes insists midfielder Mohammed Kudus will need time to settle in at West Ham United as he gradually finds his way into the starting team.

The Ghana international has made two appearances for the Hammers, coming on as a substitute in both games. Kudus was introduced in the final minute of the game against Luton Town before coming on earlier in the defeat to Manchester City on Saturday.

The former Ajax star arrived at the London stadium with a huge reputation and fans are eager to see more of the Ghanaian.

"We might need to wait a little bit more time for Dinos [Mavropanos] and Mo [Kudus] to get settled in," said Moyes after the game on Saturday, as quoted by GHANASoccernet.
