Ghana coach Akonnor tells Ajax signing Kudus: The English offers will arrive soon enough

Ghana coach Charles Akonnor is happy with Mohammed Kudus' move to Ajax.

The Ghana winger left FC Nordsjaelland for Ajax last week, though also fielded interest from the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham.

"He has taken a necessary step. It would have been a mistake if he had already gone to England, because he would have to choose a club where he can play on a regular basis," Akonnor told Graphic Sports.

"As soon as he has fully developed, the English clubs will come after him soon enough, so I think it is good that he has now gone to Ajax.

“I am delighted to see my players at the bigger clubs and in the Champions League."
