The Standard reports that Tottenham winger Mohammed Kudus is still working back towards full fitness after a serious quad injury ended his previous season early. Chris Hughton, speaking at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, said there is “more to come” once Kudus regains his sharpness.
Kudus was left out of Ghana’s squad for the international break so he can continue rehabilitation at Hotspur Way, and he made his first competitive start in eight months in Spurs’ Carabao Cup defeat by Liverpool last week. The report says he also contributed an assist, but looked short of match pace.
Almost Signed analysis: that combination of a managed return, a recent start and visible rust suggests Tottenham may use him carefully while they wait for his fitness to catch up with his technical level.
What remains unconfirmed
- How quickly Kudus will return to full match sharpness is unresolved.
- The report does not establish when he will be available for a specific future fixture.
