<p>Kudus was sent off during West Ham's match against Tottenham on October 19 after an altercation with Spurs players, resulting in a five-game ban and a £60,000 fine imposed by the English FA.</p>

<p>This suspension, initially set at three games but later extended, has seen Kudus miss recent matches against Manchester United, Nottingham Forest, and Everton.</p>

<p>He will also be absent for West Ham’s upcoming clashes with Newcastle United on November 25 and Arsenal on November 30.</p>

<p>Speaking to the media before his visit to Kumasi, where he is overseeing the progress of his new football academy in Bompata, the Jamaican international praised Kudus’s talent and resilience. </p>

<p>"Starboy, his quality, to be fair, is unbelievable," Antonio remarked. "He dribbles well, scores goals, and has great ambition. We could use more players with his qualities in our academy. </p>

<p>"Although he’s missed five games, he's a key player that we need back in our starting lineup. Things haven’t gone well this year, but I know he'll come back fully ready to go." he added</p>
