Mohammed Kudus – Getty image Nayef Aguerd, West Ham’s Moroccan defender, is also expected to be unavailable. Kudus’s absence could be a significant setback for West Ham, considering his impressive performances since joining the club from Ajax in the summer. He has scored nine goals in 24 appearances across all competitions for his side, making him a key player for the team. Having missed the previous Africa Cup of Nations due to injury, he is now set to represent Ghana this time. Meanwhile, if Ghana progresses far in the tournament, Kudus will miss several crucial matches for West Ham, including clashes against Manchester United and Arsenal.
