The Southampton centre back produced yet another top class performance when the Saints held Premier League champions Manchester City to a goalless draw on Saturday at the Etihad Stadium.

Salisu was rock solid in the Saints’ defense registering some jaw-dropping stats against Pep Guardiola’s side.

The 22-year-old came on for Jack Stephens after 37 minutes and did not misplace a single pass in the 53 minutes he spent on the pitch.

He registered a staggering 100% pass accuracy, a couple of important interceptions and a crucial goal-saving block.

Mohammed Salisu is in his second year with Southampton after joining from Real Valladolid in 2020.

Salisu scored his debut goal for the club on Tuesday when they progressed to the next round of the EFL Cup against Sheffield United.

He is however yet to make an appearance for Ghana’s Black Stars, due to personal reasons.
