Mohammed Kudus Ruled Out of World Cup as Ghana Counts the Cost

Ghana suffered a painful blow in their World Cup preparations when Mohammed Kudus was ruled out of the 2026 tournament through injury, according to beIN Sports. The West Ham attacker had been one of the most anticipated players in the African continent's contingent at this summer's finals.

Kudus is widely considered one of Ghana's most gifted and important players, and his absence leaves a significant hole in their attacking options heading into the competition.

The Black Stars will need others to step up in the absence of their star man as they look to make an impact in what is already a competitive tournament.
