My ability to speak four languages helps me to communicate with my teammates - Mohammed Salisu

Ghana's Mohammed Salisu speaks four languages which he indicated has helped him to communicate with his teammates. He made this known in an interview with the Daily Echo.

Salisu has been a key player for Southampton this season in the Premier League. He is still leading the charts for interceptions (74) across the division, alongside partner Jan Bednarek (65).

He told Daily Echo that his ability to speak four languages helps him communicate well with his teammates on the pitch.

“I speak like four languages, it helps a lot,” Salisu revealed. “When I was coming to England, I speak English so I thought this was the right place for me because I can communicate with the players, I can talk with people outside.

“We all know what we are doing and the manager knows what he wants. So everyone knows. When I’m with Jan, he knows exactly what he has to do, with Jack the same as well - and Lyanco, it’s just the communication but I speak a little bit of Spanish which really helps.”

If the Saints decide to shuffle the deck after the summer transfer window, Salisu may have a new center-back partner to play alongside.
