A transfer may prove a coup for Tottenham. It already looks a failure from West Ham. From Graham Potter, who got just two goals and two assists from such a gifted player in 18 appearances and who did not seem to have a gameplan to get the best from him, just as Julen Lopetegui did not either.

Tottenham have completed the signing of Mohammed Kudus from West Ham for £55m, subject to work permit. The Ghana midfielder, who had an £85m release clause, has joined Spurs on a six-year contract until 2031. West Ham rejected an initial £50m from Tottenham last week.

British media reported the deal is worth around 55 million pounds for Ghana's Mohammed Kudus, who turns 25 next month.
