Black Stars midfielder Kudus Mohammed helped his Dutch Eredivisie side Ajax clinch their 36th league title on Wednesday evening as they handed Herenveen an emphatic 5-0 defeat.

It  is  the third trophy he has won since joining the Dutch side from Danish side FC Nordsjaelland in the summer of 2020.

In his first season he won the Eredivisie title and the Dutch Cup before adding his second Dutch league title this season.

The Ghanaian midfielder has not seen much action this season due to persistent injuries that has blighted his promising Ajax career.

He played 22 minutes as he was introduced in the 68th minute as replacement for Davy Klaasen.

Kudus Mohammmed made a total of 15 appearances in the Eredivisie playing a total game time of 385 minutes scoring a goal and providing an assist.

Ajax, which has now extended its record number of domestic league title wins to 36, move to 82 points from 33 games, four clear of second-placed PSV Eindhoven with one more round of fixtures to be played.

Strikes from Nicolas Tagliafico and Steven Berghuis, and a Sebastien Haller penalty, all inside the opening 38 minutes, sealed the victory for Ajax, before Brian Brobbey and Edson Alvarez added two more late on.

It was the last home fixture for Ten Hag before he makes his move to the Premier League having been named last month by United as their new coach from the end of the season. Ajax finish their campaign at Vitesse Arnhem on Sunday.

Ten Hag ends his four-and-a-half year stay at the club with a third Eredivisie title in a row having also led the team to the championship in the 2018/19 and 2020/21 campaigns.

The season was cancelled in 2019/20 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
