Mohammed Kudus is better than Vinícius Júnior – Charles Taylor

Former Ghanaian professional footballer, Charles Kweku Bismark Taylor Asampong has said Ghanaian and West Ham United player Mohammed Kudus is better than Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Real Madrid, Vinícius José Paixão de Oliveira Júnior, commonly known as Vinícius Júnior.

He said Ghanaian players are good and talented but they are unable to exhibit their talents due to lack of infrastructures.

Speaking on a panel discussion on Angel TV, Charles Taylor stated that if Kudus is playing for Real Madrid, the La Liga club would lift him higher.

Adding that it is hard time Ghanaians trust their own and support them.

“Mohammed Kudus is a better player than Vinicius Junior. If Kudus is in Madrid now, he would be their best player. The ball Mohammed kudus is playing is not Vinicius Junior’s level, but because we don’t trust our players and lack good pitch, look at the ball the boy is playing there.” He said.

“If you see Vinicius Junior and the rest playing and delivering, you think it is the same as ours, and ours is not good. Our players are good because look at the ball Kudus is playing, if he is in Madrid, they would raise him to a higher standard. I have said it, anyone who doesn’t understand should go and watch the two players to see a quality player.” Charles Taylor stated.

Charles Taylor’s comment has generated a lot of reactions on social media.

Below are some of the reactions 

“This statement is coming from one of the most talented players Ghana has ever had and people are doubting him lol”

“Oh Charles Taylor paaa, wey comparison this. Kudus see this aa he go vex waa”

“akoa Wei paa,does he know Vinicius? let’s be serious in this country for once ah”

“Ghanaians like to praise things that aren’t their own but likes to praise outsiders and that’s what is happening in the comments section”

“he say if Kudus dey Madrid aa like he’s the star boy there. chale Bellingham,Rodrygo then Mbappe too dey der o.”

“Mahammed Kudus see the video he vex the man waaa,he said the man no serious.”

“Good prayers. Kasa Nanum s3 akokora. Madrid ny3 nkwadaa team masa . Kudus is West Ham’ standard. Simple”

“He might sound right and wrong at the same time …to me ,the only thing vini has over Kudus is pace .Aside that kuku can match him in every footballing aspect .”

“He knows what he’s talking about. If you really understand the game, you’d know that he’s speaking from experience”

“We all saw Vini when he first came to Madrid. It took him years to develop. He had the potential but couldn’t deliver. He was been nurtured to become what he’s today. Kudus has same potentials and even more talented than Vini and that’s a fact. So stop insulting Taylor. He said..”
