Veteran sports journalist Kwabena Yeboah reports that Kudus complained of a back problem and now faces a late fitness test to determine his availability for the clash.
The 23-year-old’s setback adds to a long list of injuries that have beset Ghana’s national team in recent months.

Thomas Partey, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Mohammed Salisu, Alexander Djiku and Tariq Lamptey are all currently sidelined by injuries.
On Monday, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) also announced that defender Daniel Amartey has been ruled out of the upcoming game against Comoros.
The 28-year-old failed a late fitness test and will, therefore, not be available for Tuesday’s important World Cup qualifier.
Amartey started but was replaced in the second half as Ghana made a winning start to their World Cup qualifying campaign against Madagascar last Friday.

The Besiktas centre-back helped Chris Hughton’s side to keep a clean sheet but his injury appears more serious than first thought.
A statement from the Ghana Football Association (GFA) said Amartey sat out of training on Sunday and will not be fit in time for the Comoros encounter.
“Daniel Amartey has failed a late fitness test for the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Comoros,” the statement said.
“The Turkey-based player limped out of the game against Madagascar on Friday after a suspected hamstring injury and was left out of training in Moroni on Sunday.”
It added: “Although MRI scans did not reveal any obvious injury, his clinical progress as monitored by the medical team has been rather slow, making him unavailable for the Black Stars ahead of the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Comoros.”

Ghana have a good opportunity to move to the top of Group H with a win over Comoros, especially with Mali dropping points after being held at home by the Central African Republic (CAR).
