Mohammed Kudus, a midfielder from Ghana, has been declared fit for Ajax’s upcoming match against AZ Alkmaar in the Dutch Eredivisie.
The 22-year-old has been out of action for three weeks after picking up an injury during the KNVB Cup semi-final against Feyenoord.
This injury caused him to miss three Eredivisie games and the Dutch Cup final against PSV, which Ajax lost on penalties.
The return of Kudus is a major boost for Ajax, who are currently vying for a spot in the Champions League.
The Ghanaian midfielder has been an important part of the team since his arrival at the club, and his presence in the midfield is sure to be felt.
Ajax will be hoping that Kudus can help them to secure a crucial win against AZ Alkmaar and keep their Champions League dreams alive.
“Berghuis did not train this week and completed his own program, he had to go to the side with complaints during the cup final and is a doubtful case for Saturday evening,” said Ajax manager John Heitinga in the pre-match presser.
“The final came too early for Kudus, but he did participate in all training sessions with the group and is available again.
Devyne Rensch came in at De Kuip on Sunday and came out well, he had no reaction on Monday. So he has this week also fully trained with the group,” he added.
Kudus has been Ahjax’s best player this season, scoring 18 goals and proving five assists across all competitions.

Kudus ranked high in dribblers list
Mohammed Kudus, the talented Ghanaian midfielder, has been recognized as one of the top five U23 dribblers in the world.
The announcement was made on May 4, 2023, and it highlights some of the most skilled players at the age of 23 and under.
The prestigious list is dominated by the likes of Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior, who ranks first, and Santos’ Angelo Gabriel, who comes in at second. Kudus is honored to be named in the elite group, which includes Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Pedro Neto.
Kudus, who turned 22 in August 2022, joined Ajax Amsterdam from Danish side FC Nordsjælland in July 2020. He was an immediate hit for the Dutch club, scoring on his Eredivisie debut against Sparta Rotterdam.
