Ajax's Mohammed Kudus produced an outrageous piece of skill that has fans drawing comparisons to Ronaldinho

Mohammed Kudus produced a dazzling piece of skill for Ajax as they thrashed Heerenveen 5-0 in the Eredivisie on Saturday.

Kudus put on a show in the Dutch capital with two goals and a player of the match performance as Alfred Schreuder’s side maintained their perfect start to the season.

Strikes from Davy Klaassen, Kenneth Taylor, and Brian Bobbey either side of Kudus’ brace ensured the Dutch giants made it six wins from six as they look to win a fourth straight domestic title.

Ajax dominated proceedings with over 70% possession, picking up where they left off following their 4-0 demolition of Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s Rangers in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The Ghana international has been one of the standout players during new boss Schreuder’s short reign, with five goals in eight matches across all competitions this campaign.

The 20-year-old further boosted his growing reputation as he showcased his wonderful technical ability with a series of eye-catching flicks and tricks at The Johan Cruyff Arena.

And one moment during the match, in particular, has got the internet salivating over this fledgling talent.

Surrounded by three opposition players in the Heerenveen penalty area, Kudus flicked the ball up and sent it the way of Klaassen all in one silky movement.  

The audacious trick has led several fans on Twitter to draw comparisons to the great Ronaldinho, whose outrageous skills were ubiquitous in the YouTube compilation videos of the mid-2000s.

“Never in my life have I seen a pass like that,” one Twitter user wrote.

“Some Ronaldinho levels,” a second tweeted.

Another added: “Crazy skill; this guy will end up playing for a world class team.”

While a third claimed: “If this guy stays fit, top clubs will be all over him soon.”
