Mohammed Kudus ban extended to five matches after red card against Tottenham
West Ham winger Mohammed Kudus has been handed a further two-match ban after admitting a charge of violent conduct following his red card against Tottenham last month.
The additional suspension takes his ban to five games in total, and means he will be ineligible to play until the Hammers’ match against Leicester on December 3. The Ghanaian has also been fined £60,000.
Kudus sparked a melee in the 82nd minute of the match on October 19 with his foul on Spurs’ Mickey Van de Ven.
West Ham were fined £30,000 over the behaviour of their players in that incident.
The red card Kudus was shown following a VAR review triggered an immediate three-game ban.
