The Ajax Amsterdam playmaker is one of only two Ghanaians in this year’s list, with the other being creative director and videographer Emmanuel Whajah.

Kudus has been in sensational form for both club and country over the last 12 months, having also starred for the Black Stars at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The 22-year-old is currently enjoying his most productive spell in front of goal after finally overcoming injury and settling at Ajax.

For his exploits on and off the pitch, the former Right To Dream Academy midfielder has been recognised on Forbes Africa’s 30 Under 30 list.
