Kudus lights up Tottenham debut with a sparkling cameo
Lacing up for the first time since completing his £55 million switch from West Ham, the 24-year-old didn’t need long to make an impact.
Introduced after the break, he took charge on the left wing and immediately set the tempo with his trademark burst of energy and dazzling footwork.
Kudus danced past defenders like they weren’t there, mixing flair with focus in a way that few can.
But he wasn’t just putting on a show; there was substance to match the style.
Kudus plays crucial role in Tottenham’s win against Reading
Barely four minutes into the second half, Kudus whipped in a teasing corner. Youngster Luka Vuskovic rose highest and flicked the ball into the path of Will Lankshear, who nodded home the opener to put Spurs ahead.
Moments later, Kudus was at it again. Picking up a loose ball after Reading failed to clear their lines, he slipped a perfectly timed pass into the feet of Vuskovic, who calmly slotted past the keeper to double the lead.
It wasn’t just the goals he helped create. According to Spurs Express, Kudus produced the most chances on the pitch, three in total, all in just 45 minutes.
