Black stars midfielder Mohammed Kudus was on the scoresheet in his first Eredivisie game of the campaign with a goal in a 5-0 victory over Fortuna Sittard on Tuesday.

The 21 years old had been out of action since picking up an injury while in pre-season action against Belgians Anderlecht in July.

Ajax win cemented a place at the top of the Dutch Eredivisie league table.

Kudus’s injury return is no doubt a welcome news for Ghana ahead of their 2022 World Cup qualifying double-header against Zimbabwe next month, having had to do without their key man in games against Ethiopia and South Africa earlier this month.
