Southampton new defender Mohammed Salisu promises to give his all for the club

Southampton new defender Mohammed Salisu understands the tough task ahead but has promised to give his all to help the club succeed.

The Ghanaian has joined the Premier League club on a four-year deal after an impressive debut season in Spanish top-flight with Real Valladolid.

He started 30 of Valladolid’s 38 La Liga matches last season. Due to his impressive performances, he attracted interest from a number of clubs including Manchester United. But Southampton were able to convince the highly-rated defender to join them.

“It is a very good feeling to be a Southampton player. I am very happy to be part of the club and I am looking forward to starting here," Salisu said after completing the transfer on Wednesday.

“Southampton is a club with a very rich history in developing young players, so it is a very good club for me to develop my skills and to learn a lot as a young player.

“I know that the team expects a lot from me and I’m going to try to give all I can to help the team.”

Salisu is yet to be capped by Ghana. He missed out on his debut Black Stars call-up last year November due to injury.
