Ghanaian center back Mohammed Salisu, says be is delighted with his consistent performances at Southampton in the English Premier League.
The 22-year-old, who joined the Saints in the summer of 2020 from Spanish club Real Valladolid, needed some time to get into the starting team of Southampton.
The talented left-footed defender has since been a top performer for the Saints in the Premier League.
“So far the season is going on well and I hope everything continues like this,” Salisu told HampshireLive.
“I think it’s very important as a young central defender to get more minutes in the Premier League. I am very happy.
“I think I have learned a lot and I have been studying what the manager wants and I have always been watching the games and looking at what he wants.
“That makes it easier for me when I started playing.
“He has been a good manager. Since I came here, he has been good to me.
“I remember before I came here, we spoke. He told me he needed me in the team and that I was a long project, how I was a young central defender, I needed to do what I was doing and I would get more minutes to play.”
Salisu has made 11 Premier League appearances this season.
