All eyes were already on Tottenham on Thursday night as news emerged of their accelerating interest in Nottingham Forest playmaker Morgan Gibbs-White.

And the club used that increased exposure to confirm their first significant step into the transfer market since this summer's appointment of Thomas Frank as their new manager.

Mohammed Kudus cited former Brentford boss Frank as an important factor in his decision to make a £55m move from West Ham.

"From where [Frank] has come from, and seeing the amount of talent he has developed to become great players, it's a big sign as to why I wanted to work under him as well," said the 24-year-old Ghana forward.

Kudus was also tempted by the chance to play at the top level of European football with Spurs, saying he "always wanted to play at the highest level".

"How big the club is, the history and the Champions League as well, so it's a big moment. I'm very happy and can't wait to start," he added.
