Mohammed Kudus was thrilled to play his role in an early Christmas present for West Ham United supporters in Saturday’s 2-0 win over Manchester United.
The Irons signed off 2023 at London Stadium with a hard-fought victory over the Red Devils as Kudus and Jarrod Bowen netted in quick succession in the second half.
The result puts the Hammers up to sixth in the Premier League, temporarily at least, and the Ghanaian was pleased with a big result in east London.
“Manchester United are a very good team and everybody gave their best,” he told whufc.com. “I’m very happy to help the team get the three points. It’s an amazing Christmas gift for the fans, and I hope they enjoyed it.”
Kudus has been in excellent form for the Hammers since joining the club from Ajax Amsterdam in the summer transfer window.
He has 15 goal contributions in 26 appearances in all competitions.
