“Moving her out of Nima, getting her her own house. I think that’s one of the biggest achievements that she’s proud of. The first thing I did when I moved to Denmark was to give my mum a house so that she can be comfortable,” he told West Ham TV.

“I believe that’s the basic need in living; to wake up with no monthly rent [on your mind] and stuff. So that’s the big thing I was able to do for her.”

Kudus has been named in Chris Hughton's 55-man squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, as reported by the FA's official website.
