Tottenham hotspurs coach Thomas Frank was full of praise for Kudus in their narrow win against Arsenal fc in pre-season friendly

Pape Matar Sarr’s stunning strike from just beyond the halfway line sealed a memorable victory for Spurs over their city rivals in distant Hong Kong.

Despite playing only 63 minutes, Kudus delivered a standout performance before being substituted for Brennan Johnson.

After the match, Frank was full of praise for the 24-year-old’s display.

“I thought he was outstanding today. His hold-up play, composure under pressure, and ability to work in tight spaces were impressive. His dribbling and chance creation were top-notch.

“On top of that, he worked tirelessly for the team. With his attacking flair and defensive effort, he’s definitely going to excite the fans,” Frank said.

The former FC Nordsjaelland forward will be eager to maintain his strong form when Spurs take on Newcastle United on Sunday, before finishing their pre-season campaign against Bayern Munich.

Kudus joined the Europa League champions from West Ham earlier this month for £55 million, becoming the most expensive Ghanaian player in history.
