“For me, it has been a dream since I was a child to play in the Premier League and I am very, very happy to be here. We all know it is a very tough league, but I am ready for everything to put all I can into helping the team.
“It is a very good feeling to be a Southampton player. I am very happy to be part of the club and I am looking forward to starting here", Mohammed Salisu said as quoted by Southampton's website.
The 21-year old further indicated that with the track record of the Saints, he is hoping to develop his game during his stay in England.
“It’s a very good club for me to develop my skills and to learn a lot as a young player and I’m very happy to join. Southampton has a fantastic history in developing young players and I hope I do my best to add to that group", he added.
