Tottenham Hotspur have made their first statement signing of the summer by securing Mohammed Kudus from their London rivals, and the 24-year-old is adamant about his best position, which may make things a little awkward for Thomas Frank.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It has been widely reported over recent weeks that Frank is prioritising signing a top-class winger at Tottenham<\/a> ahead of his first season in charge.<\/p>\n

That is perhaps why Spurs decided to pay \u00a355m to land Kudus<\/a> from West Ham, with the Ghanaian arguably doing his best work at the London Stadium on the right wing.<\/p>\n

In fact, some even feel that the reason he misfired last season was down to Graham Potter playing him out of position, but the soon-to-be Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> attacker feels that his best role is not on the flanks at all.<\/p>\n

The former Ajax man has made it clear on a few occasions that his preference is to play centrally, either as a number eight or a ten, rather than on either flank.<\/p>\n

However, at the same time, Kudus<\/a> is evidently a team man as he made it clear that he is happy to play where the manager wants him to.<\/p>\n

In his first interview with West Ham\u2019s official website<\/a> after signing for the club two years ago, Kudus said: \u201cWe all know my versatility for the past years, but I think the position I\u2019ve played most spots from my actions are from the central areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut it\u2019s the team that\u2019s above everyone else so the position the coach feels is best for me to help the team, of course, I will give my 100 per cent best. Everything that I\u2019ve played in did my best is from like, an attacking position, from the midfield.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kudus then expressed a very similar sentiment again last year, stating to Sky Sports last summer: \u201c[My best position is] like a No.10, attacking midfielder. That\u2019s where I\u2019ve played all my years since I was a kid. Recently, I\u2019ve played on the wings or even as a striker sometimes but I\u2019ve always been a midfielder.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Where will Thomas Frank use Kudus at Spurs?<\/p>\n

There is no doubt that Frank<\/a> would have spoken to the winger ahead of his move to Spurs<\/a> and explained the role he envisions for him.<\/p>\n

It was widely reported that moving to Tottenham was Kudus\u2019 top choice<\/a>, which indicates that he liked the vision that the Spurs head coach proposed for him.<\/p>\n

According to some sources, Fabio Paratici believes that Frank could turn Kudus into a \u2018world star\u2019<\/a>, given what he achieved with Bryan Mbeumo at Brentford. One can certainly see the similarities between the Cameroonian and the Ghanaian.<\/p>\n
