Jan Mulder and Marco van Basten are lyrical about Mohammed Kudus. The Ghanaian is of great value under John Heitinga and, according to Mulder, even the best player at Ajax.
Heitinga uses Kudus as a right winger, while his predecessor Alfred Schreuder frequently placed him in the striker position. The 22-year-old playmaker is loose under the new Ajax coach and has scored four times in the last six games. “Kudus is Ajax’s best player,” Mulder notes at Rondo on Ziggo Sport. “What a class player. Why didn’t he always play under Schreuder? He often sat on the bench there. You leave him for three or four games and you immediately see his class. That’s what makes Ajax right now.”
Mulder receives support from Van Basten. It is emphasized at the table that the right wing position has been a headache since Antony left for Manchester United. “I think he’s even better than Antony,” said San Marco. “He’s a better footballer and he’s more fun to play with.”
“Antony had moves, but he could also be so muddled. Kudus has a much firmer technique and knows where he is going. Antony may be faster, but Kudus is smarter and more technical. He is much more of a footballer and an all-rounder for the team. “
‘I think Kudus is a better player than Antony’ 😯
The Brazilian yielded 100 million, how much will Kudus yield? 😳#ZiggoSport #Rondo pic.twitter.com/BvGwzv1j7e— Ziggo Sport Football (@ZS_Voetbal) February 20, 2023
