West Ham learn length of Mohammed Kudus ban after Tottenham red
West Ham midfielder Mohammed Kudus has been given an extra two-match ban by the Football Association after his sending off against Tottenham last month.
The Ghana international was involved in an altercation with Micky van de Ven late on in the Hammers' defeat to their London rivals.
Kudus was initially given a yellow card before VAR upgraded the offence to a red and now the FA have confirmed that the former Ajax man will miss West Ham's next five matches.
Kudus is alleged to have acted in a "violent and improper manner" towards the Dutch defender and will miss five games in total.
The West Ham man will therefore be out for match with Everton, Newcastle, Arsenal, Leicester and Wolves.
