West Ham star Kudus ruled out of Nigeria vs Ghana friendly

West Ham United midfielder Mohammed Kudus is set to miss the Super Eagles friendly against Ghana on Friday, March 22.

The 23-year-old has been ruled out of the clash due to a shoulder injury.

According to reports, the talented attacking midfielder sustained the injury during the Hammers' clash with Aston Villa in the Premier League last weekend.

The ex-Ajax star was listed in the Black Star's initial 26-man squad by coach Otto Addo.

Arsenal's Thomas Partey has also pulled out of the Black Stars squad over fitness concerns. The former Athletico Madrid man is still recovering from a groin injury he sustained in November last year.

The Super Eagles will take on rivals Black Stars at the Grand de Stade in Marrakech, Morocco before taking on Mali at the same venue four days later.
