Mohammed Kudus will be seeking revenge against Liverpool after being named to Ajax’s starting lineup for the Champions League match against Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday night.
The Ghana international has earned the start against the six-time European champions because of his excellent form.
Mohammed Kudus has four goals in the last two games, including a stunning winner as Ajax opened their Champions League campaign with a thrashing of Rangers.
This match brings back painful memories for Mohammed Kudus, who was injured by Fabinho on his Champions League debut two seasons ago against the English giants.
It was his first major injury, and it dealt him a devastating blow, derailing his explosive start as an Ajax player.

Mohammed Kudus is fully fit and will look to score and inspire Ajax to victory over last season’s finalists at Anfield, which is expected to be packed.
The 22-year-old attempted to leave Ajax during the summer transfer window after being benched in the first four games.
