Tottenham Hotspur defender Mocky Van de Ven has expressed hope that Mohammed Kudus will be fit for Spurs’ crucial Premier League encounter against Manchester United this Saturday at Old Trafford.

Kudus missed Spurs’ 4–0 UEFA Champions League win over Copenhagen after picking up a knock against Chelsea last weekend. His absence was felt, despite Van de Ven’s solo goal heroics, as Spurs look to avoid back-to-back league defeats.

When asked about how impactful Mohammed Kudus will be for Spurs against Manchester United, the Tottenham current top scorer with five goals across all competitions answered:

“Mohammed Kudus is an unbelievable player… Hopefully he will be fit for us in the weekend against Manchester United,” Van de Ven told Telecom Asia.

  • Impact: Spurs rely on his creativity and attacking spark

The White Lilies, after the frustrating 1-0 loss to Chelsea in the London Derby in the Matchday 10 of the Premier League campaign, bounced back in a fabulous fashion as they thumped Danish outfit FC Copenhagen 4-0 in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, November 4 at home.
