AS Monaco reveals fit-again Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu will return to action two-three weeks’ time

Published on: 03 November 2023

Ghana international Mohammed Salisu is expected to make his AS Monaco debut in two to three weeks’ time despite joining group training.

Salisu joined his teammates at training this week after recovering from an injury that ruled him out for several months.

The Black Stars defender has been out of action since March 2023, missing latter part of last season during his spell with Southampton.

Despite the injury setback, the defender sealed a move to Monaco in the summer transfer window but has since not featured for the club.

According to General Director, Thiago Scuro, Mohammed Salisu should be fully cleared for action in a fortnight time.

“We hope to see him in the group by the next two or three weeks to start getting minutes," he told RMC Sport.

This means Salisu will miss Ghana's opening games in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Madagascar and Comoros this month.
