Both attackers have made strong starts to their careers at their new clubs since making their switches across the capital to North London.
Of course, the Arsenal winger nearly became Kudus’ teammate, only for the Gunners to controversially swoop in and steal him from Spurs’ clutches.
Following the impressive performances from Kudus and Eze, Eden Hazard has weighed in on the debate as to which player is the better dribbler.
Eden Hazard picks Arsenal’s Eberechi Eze over Tottenham’s Mohammed Kudus
Hazard has picked Arsenal winger Eberechi Eze as the better dribbler ahead of Mohammed Kudus from Tottenham Hotspur.
When asked to pick between the Spurs attacker and Arsenal’s new forward, Hazard told the Premier League: “Ohhh, Eze is good. I like Eze.”
Arsenal are delighted with Eze’s start to life at the Emirates Stadium, with his performances helping Mikel Arteta’s side to sit top of the Premier League.
Meanwhile, Jermain Defoe thinks Kudus has become Tottenham’s main man, even just a few months after making his debut.
The Spurs star has very impressive dribbling stats this season; however, the Chelsea legend believes Eze is actually better than him.
Hazard is clearly a big fan of Eze, also picking him over Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, and Florian Wirtz, but not Cole Palmer.
Mohammed Kudus will dispute Eden Hazard’s Eberechi Eze at Arsenal claim
Kudus will certainly have something to say about Hazard’s claim that Eze is a better dribbler than him, given his stats this season.
The 24-year-old has averaged more successful dribbles per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season than any other player.
Kudus has completed 30 dribbles this season, which is 12 more than any other Premier League player and 22 more than Eze.
| Player | Successful dribbles per 90 |
| Mohammed Kudus | 4.4 |
| Jeremy Doku | 4.2 |
| Rico Henry | 3.7 |
| Estevao | 3.7 |
| Noah Okafor | 3.2 |
Alan Shearer believes Kudus’ dribbling has made him unstoppable following his scintillating display against Leeds United.
Just before the October international break, Kudus opened his account for the season with a goal against Leeds.
Thomas Frank will now hope that the strike at Elland Road can be the catalyst for his new winger to explode into his best form
