West Ham United star, Mohammed Kudus, has disclosed that he supported Ghanaian giants, Hearts of Oak while growing up.
The Phobians are one of the biggest football clubs in Africa, with a lot of reputation in Ghana and the continent.
Hearts of Oak have a total of 21 Ghana Premier League titles - the second highest in history and three continental titles.
The Rainbow lads won the CAF Champions League in 2000, the CAF Super Cup in 2001, and the CAF Confederation Cup in 2005.
Hearts of Oak are also the record winners of Ghana’s FA Cup, winning it 13 times.
Asked about which club he supported growing up, Kudus told Sky Sports, “I was supporting a team in Ghana called Hearts [of Oak], a team in the Ghana league. [The atmosphere] was crazy. It is in the city I grew up in, in Accra, the capital.”
Mohammed Kudus has been on fire this season for West Ham, scoring 16 goals across all competitions in 38 games in his first season.
