Ghana international, Mohammed Kudus has revealed his admiration for Liverpool midfielder, Thiago Alcantara, saying he wants to play like him.
Kudus scored against Liverpool at Anfield in the Champion League game two but the Spaniard was instrumental as the Premier League side fought back to record a 2-1 win.
“As a child, I enjoyed his playing. I like creativity and joy of playing, Kudus explains his love for Thiago,” he told Ajax TV.
“When I played in Denmark, a friend of mine arranged a shirt from him. That was fantastic. The shirt hangs at my house and I’m very proud of it.’
“Sometimes he plays on ‘six’ but then, despite his defensive duties, he doesn’t lose his creativity.
“No matter where he plays, he always finds the balance between defending and attacking. That’s how I want to play too,” he added.
Ajax will host Liverpool in the matchday five games in the Champions League on Wednesday, October 26.a
