Even though the 23-year-old Ghanaian has same successful dribbles as Middlesbrough’s Marcus Tavernier, the Middlesbrough star id rated ahead of the Ghanaian as he boasts of an impressive success rate of 56 per cent.
Since joining the Hammers, Kudus has been very influential to the Londoners’ campaign both domestic and in Europe contributing seven goals across all competitions so far.
Jordan Ayew may not have been prolific in front of goal this season, but the 31-year-old has contributed more than just goals to Crystal Palace as he currently averages 1.9 dribbles per a game.
Sitting on top of the log is another player of Ghanaian descent, Jeremy Doku who has so far successfully completed 44 dribbles this season and considered the best dribbler in the league.
Doku who was born in Belgium to Ghanaian parents is considered to have introduced some dynamism to the attacking wings of Pep Guardiola’s team since joining from French side, Rennes, following his eye-catching performances.
