Tottenham Hotspur manager, Thomas Frank, has showered praise on forward Mohammed Kudus for his performance in their 1-0 win over Arsenal on Thursday.

Pape Matar Sarr's superb finish from just over the halfway line proved enough for Spurs to clinch a famous win over their city rivals in far away Hong Kong.

The former Ajax man last 63 minutes before being replaced by Brennan Johnson.

Frank was full of admiration for the 24 year old's performance after the game.

"I thought he was excellent today - his hold-up play, composure on the ball, and ability to navigate tight spaces stood out. His one-on-one skills and chance creation were top class.

"Beyond that, he put in a tremendous shift for the team. He’s going to excite fans with his attacking flair while also contributing defensively," he said.

Kudus joined the Europa League champions from West Ham for £55m earlier this month, making him the most expensive Ghanaian ever.
