Mohammed Salisu leaves Southampton to join Monaco

Monaco have completed the signing of Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu from Southampton.

The 24-year-old spent three seasons at Saints, playing 80 games and scoring one goal.

He has signed a five-year deal with the Ligue 1 side and leaves St Mary's ahead of Southampton's return to the Sky Bet Championship.

Monaco have moved to recruit a centre-back, with Axel Disasi expected to depart for Chelsea in the coming days.
