Southampton manager, Ralph Hasenhuttl has showered praises on Ghanaian defender Mohammed Salisu after an incredible performance against Manchester City over the weekend.
The 22-year-old produced a Man of the Match performance to end the champions 12-game winning streak.
Hasenhuttl, who had to take time to give the Ghanaian playing minutes, is proud of the youngster’s development.
“He had a tough season with not being fit but we always told him to take his time. He didn’t train with the team for half a year after coming here, this is tough for a player in a new situation, but you get through it,” he said after the 1-1 draw at the Saint Mary’s.
“We always spoke to him about the long-term project we have with him. We gave him to time to be fit for our game and we gave him the time to adapt to our game. Now you are seeing how strong he is and how well developed we have him.”
