The 24-year-old Ghana international has signed a six-year contract with Spurs, which will keep him at the club until 2031.<\/p><p>Kudus had an &pound;85 million release clause at West Ham but Spurs secured the attacker after repeated negotiations. Their initial &pound;50 million bid was rejected, with West Ham valuing the player closer to &pound;60 million.
