SAD News:Shocking twist as Mike Dean claims West Ham star Mohammed Kudus will be banned
Mohammed Kudus will not play again for West Ham United until December 9th after his red card against Tottenham Hotspur.
That’s according to former top Premier League referee Mike Dean.
Disaster struck for West Ham as they collapsed to lose 4-1 at bitter rivals Spurs.
Star player Mohammed Kudus was red carded after a moment of madness in the second half.
That meant West Ham’s best player will miss games against Man United, Forest and Everton.
As pointed out after the game on Hammers News, the two-week November international break then kicks in.
As a result, Kudus would not be seen in a West Ham shirt until the last week of November away at Newcastle.
West Ham’s disastrous derby defeat to Spurs
Somehow things could get even worse for West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui and Kudus, though.

Kudus was seen kicking the ball against brilliant Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven while he was on the floor following a tussle between the two.
Van de Ven took exception and jumped up to confront Kudus, calling him crazy.
The Spurs man then shoved Kudus who reacted by pushing Van de Ven in the face.
The towering Dutchman had played the tough man but then suddenly went down embarrassingly clutching his face.
“Then hopefully the second one, the FA will then take retrospective action so he’ll get done twice in my opinion.
“Because he’s hit two different players in the face on two occasions. He should do. I think he’ll get done twice.”
That would mean Kudus will miss West Ham’s games against Man United, Forest, Everton, Newcastle, Arsenal and Leicester.
He would not be available again for the Hammers until Wolves at home on December 9th.
That’s seven-and-a-half weeks away.
Mike Dean and West Ham
Many Hammers fans will understandably take issue with Dean’s use of the word “hopefully” on two occasions when discussing Kudus’s potential six-game ban.
It must be said Dean was using the word in the context of official punishment guidelines and rules.
But it was a poor choice of words.
Dean infamously took a break from football when he allegedly received threats after sending off Tomas Soucek in a West Ham match against Fulham.
The red card was later rescinded and Soucek called for calm from angry Hammers fans.
