Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Kudus has been shortlisted for the 2024 FIFA Puskás Award following his extraordinary solo goal against Freiburg in the Europa League last season.
The 22-year-old’s mesmerizing strike, a perfect display of skill, speed, and precision, has captured global attention, earning him a place among the year’s top goals.
During the match, Kudus picked up the ball near the halfway line, wove past multiple defenders with his agility and quick footwork, and delivered a thunderous strike with his weaker foot that left the goalkeeper helpless.
The goal has already been crowned West Ham United’s Goal of the Season.
The winner will be revealed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in January 2025. Football fans eagerly await the announcement to see who claims this year’s top goal.
