Mohammed Kudus has been absent from Tottenham Hotspur for over two months due to injury.

The Ghana international was a marquee signing for the Lilywhites in the summer before being joined by Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig.

There were hopes that the duo would revolutionise the North London club’s attack, but that certainly hasn’t been the case.

The man signed from West Ham started well, but injuries have dampened his spell across the capital, and Spurs have certainly felt his absence.

As a big-money signing for Tottenham, Kudus has left many fans frustrated, and now Tottenham News assesses what we know about his contract.

What is Mohammed Kudus’ contract situation at Tottenham?

The former Ajax star was met with high hopes at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer despite some struggles with the Hammers.

He told fans that “you’ll find Tottenham in his heart”, and that was instantly enough to capture their attention.

That certainly helped when he picked up two assists on his Premier League debut against Burnley in North London.

Kudus has only contributed to another six goals since then in all competitions, before injuries began to take their toll on his season.

He hasn’t necessarily proven to be worth his reported £150,000 per week wage, especially as that approaches a £7.8million fee for the year.

The only benefit of that is that the Ghanaian is under contract until 2031, having only put pen to paper on a six-year deal in the summer.

Kudus could soon be on his way back for Tottenham, and he already has a lot to do if he is to prove himself for the Lilywhites.

When will Kudus return from injury at Tottenham?

The attacker is currently struggling with a hamstring injury and is missing plenty of massively important games in the relegation battle.

Igor Tudor needs all the help he can get, but it looks unlikely to be the former West Ham man at this stage as he continues his recovery.

Kudus was sent to a specialist in Amsterdam to help him on his way back to fitness with a date after the March international break mooted in N17.

That could see the mid-April clash away to Sunderland be a realistic goal for the number 20 after being missing since 4 January.
