In his last match for Ajax, Kudus netted a hat-trick in the Europa League play-off 1^st leg victory against Ludogorets in Razgrad as the team from the Netherlands won 4-1 in Bulgaria.

“It’s been my dream to play in the Premier League since I was little,” the player shared as West Ham confirmed his transfer.

“It’s a dream come true to be a West Ham player. But it doesn’t stop here; I want to show my best on the pitch. I can’t wait to help my team.”

“I try my best to entertain the supporters as I think that’s what this game is all about,” Mohammed claimed.

Brighton reached an agreement with Ajax for the attacker at the beginning of the month, but the Seagulls could not finalize personal terms.
