Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus is a huge fan of the American entertainment industry.
The Black Stars ace and his West Ham United teammates are currently in Tampa, Florida for a pre-season tour.
Kudus and West Ham have been involved in a series of activities since arriving in the Sunshine State early this week, including meeting the club’s fans in the United States.
In a video shared on social media, the players were asked about their favourite American celebrity and Kudus did not hesitate as he named rapper Lil Baby.
Meanwhile, Moroccan defender went for actor Denzel Washington while England-born Ghanaian youngster Gideon Kodua picked rapper and man of the moment, Kendrick Lamar.
West Ham United will play two friendly matches in the United States before returning to England, including a game against Crystal Palace.
Kudus enjoyed an outstanding first season with the Hammers in his debut Premier League campaign.
The versatile midfielder is looking forward to a good season under new manager Julen Lopetegui, who he claims gives him the freedom to express himself on the pitch.
He told the club’s official website:
“His [Lopetegui’s] style is how I want to play, how I want to attack as a winger and there is a lot of freedom, which allows me to do that. That is the most important thing for me – that I’m allowed to play how I want to. He has different tactics and a different style, but we are all working together to push the Club to the level where we want it to be.”
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Kudus recreated an iconic moment reminiscent of Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal, this time with a baby dressed in West Ham United and Ghana colours.
The former Ajax Amsterdam star has quickly become a fan favourite in his first season with the Hammers.
Despite ongoing rumours of a potential transfer, Kudus remains with the East London outfit and is gearing up for the 2024/25 season.
