Mohammed Kudus Trains with His Childhood Friends in Nima, Ghana (Video)

Ghanaian footballer Mohammed Kudus, fresh off his recent exploits with the Black Stars, is currently back in Ghana after participating in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Mohammed Kudus played a pivotal role in both matches, helping Ghana secure a 2-1 victory over Mali in Bamako and a thrilling 4-3 win against the Central African Republic in Kumasi.

In a heartwarming scene captured two years ago, Mohammed Kudus returned to his roots in Nima, a neighborhood in Accra where he grew up, to reconnect with his childhood friends.

The viral video shows the former Ajax star engaging in a spirited game of football on one of the rugged pitches in Nima.

 

This nostalgic visit isn’t the first time Mohammed Kudus has honored his origins.

Two years ago, a mural was erected in Nima to celebrate his contributions ahead of the World Cup in Qatar, symbolizing his rise from the streets of Nima to international football stardom.

Kudus’s journey began at the Right to Dream Academy, an institution renowned for using football as a means to uplift the community.
