Mohammed Kudus has been electric for West Ham United so far this season, and we all have Tim Steidten to thank for the fact that he’s even playing for us!
West Ham director of football Tim Steidten played a key role in bringing Mohammed Kudus to the London Stadium.

Hammers boss David Moyes signed the 23-year-old from Ajax in the summer transfer window for around £40 million (The Guardian), and the lively attacker has already really impressed the powers that be at the club, as well as the fans of course.
Kudus has been absolutely sensational for West Ham so far, with nine goals in 21 games to his name already this season (Who Scored).
What a stunning player we have on our hands. It really is pinch yourself stuff watching him play at the London Stadium.
And we clearly have Steidten to thank for that…
Tim Steidten role in bringing Mohammed Kudus to West Ham explained
According to the Athletic’s Roshane Thomas, it was a sales pitch from Steidten that convinced Kudus to join West Ham.
The German assured Kudus that he and Lucas Paqueta would play alongside one another, despite the fact that the Brazilian was being linked with a big money move to Manchester City.
Steidten stuck to his word, and Paqueta remained at the London Stadium, and the Hammers star has ended up forging a brilliant partnership with the Ghana international.
With Kudus and Paqueta currently on fire and lighting up the Premier League alongside Jarrod Bowen, there really is a feeling that West Ham can go on to achieve great things this season.
The former Ajax man seems to be perfectly suited to the Premier League. He’s already taken the English game by storm, and the scary thing is that he will only get better and better with every week and month that passes.
Tim Steidten has made a similar impact since arriving at West Ham, and we owe him the world for getting the deal to bring Mohammed Kudus to the club over the line.
