Mohammed Kudus has finished serving his five-game suspension and is available for selection when West Ham United play away to Leicester City in the Premier League on Tuesday night.
The 24-year-old was sent off against Tottenham in October following an altercation with Spurs players and was given an initial three-game suspension which was upgraded to five, and fined 60,000 pounds.
It’s been nearly two months since Kudus last played for West Ham. The Hammers boss, Julen Lopetegui said the Ghanaian is excited to be back.
"Let’s see what’s going to happen with [Mohammed Kudus]. We’re not going to talk about the line-up. It’s true that he’s now available after being out for a long time, too," he told the press.
"He’s ready, working well, and happy to be back, which is good news for us because we have a lot of upcoming matches in a row. It’s a good thing we have as many options as possible for these games."
Kudus has two goals in eight Premier League appearances for the Hammers this season including goals against Manchester City and Tottenham.
