A particularly touching moment occurred when Kudus interacted with a fan and his child.

One ecstatic fan, overwhelmed with admiration, praised Kudus before the Right to Dream Academy graduate extended his arms to hold the fan's baby.
The baby, draped in West Ham and Ghana colours, was gently held by Kudus.
The fan urged Kudus to recreate Messi's memorable moment with Lamine Yamal and to "bless" his child to follow in the Black Stars forward's footsteps.
In response, the Nima-born attacker playfully "anointed" the child with "more goals."

According to Sky Sports, it drew attention after Yamal's father, Mounir Nasraoui, posted it on Instagram last week with the caption: "The beginning of two legends."
