- Mohammed Kudus is still chasing a significant Tottenham achievement after five matches, despite providing two assists
- Kudus showed glimpses of his quality against former club West Ham on, but Spurs fans are still waiting for that key Kudus’ moment
- Kudus’ summer switch from West Ham to Tottenham has added extra spice to the already fierce London derby
After five matches across all competitions, Mohammed Kudus is still searching for a major Tottenham Hotspur feat of the 2025/26 season, despite delivering flashes of brilliance in midfield.
The Ghanaian playmaker joined Spurs from West Ham United this summer, arriving as one of the Premier League’s most exciting and creative midfielders. Tottenham fans had high expectations, given Kudus’ reputation for flair, drive, and versatility.

Kudus’ early Spurs journey
According to Flashscore, Kudus made his Spurs debut in the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain before featuring in Premier League clashes with Burnley, Manchester City, Bournemouth, and most recently, Wolverhampton Wanderers.
In each outing, the 24-year-old has shown his trademark energy, pressing from the front, combining well with teammates, and driving forward to create chances.
As per Transfermarkt, Kudus already has two assists in five appearances, underlining his ability to take on defences.
Kudus yet to score first Tottenham goal
The major concern remains Kudus’ finishing touch. Despite his creative influence, the Ghana international has now failed to score in five consecutive Tottenham matches.
In modern football, goals are a vital currency for wingers, often defining their impact more than creativity alone.
The sooner Mohammed Kudus begins to improve his numbers at Tottenham, the better it will be for his confidence and reputation.
Adding to the worries, the ex-Ajax man, recently hailed by teammate Richarlison, also drew blanks in both of Ghana’s recent international fixtures in September, extending his goal drought across club and country.
On Saturday, September 13 at the London Stadium, Mohammed Kudus endured another frustrating outing for Tottenham against his former club West Ham, as he failed to get on the scoresheet once again.

The Ghanaian midfielder, however, delivered a steady performance, showing glimpses of his creativity and work rate despite not producing a decisive moment.
Overall, Kudus was okay, contributing to Spurs’ build-up play but still searching for his first goal of the 2025/26 season.
Despite the slow start in terms of goals, there is belief that Kudus can be the spark for Tottenham’s attack once he breaks his duck.
His creativity, tireless work rate, and versatility remain invaluable assets for Thomas Frank’s side.
The Spurs manager has repeatedly praised Kudus’ energy and work ethic this season, highlighting his importance to the team’s overall play.
