Salisu's career at Monaco
Salisu joined AS Monaco in 2023 from English side Southampton, arriving with high expectations after solid performances in the Premier League.
However, his time in France has been overshadowed by persistent injury setbacks.
Since his arrival, the former Real Valladolid man has made just 37 appearances for Monaco across all competitions, struggling to maintain consistent fitness.
Despite these challenges, Salisu remains an important figure for the Ghana national team as he featured in the recent World Cup qualifiers victories for Otto Addo's side.
With 3 goals in 19 international caps, the centre-back has been a key player in the Black Stars’ defense and is seen as one of the future leaders of the squad.
Mixed feelings over off-field displays
While many fans celebrated Salisu’s posts, applauding his success and luxurious taste, others expressed mixed feelings.
Some questioned whether the defender’s focus was fully on his recovery and return to top form, especially given Monaco’s recent defensive struggles.
Still, most fans left supportive comments, urging Salisu to come back stronger and reminding him of his importance to both club and country.
It’s not uncommon for footballers to share glimpses of their personal lives on social media, but Salisu’s post has sparked conversation among Ghanaian football circles, with some analysts calling for him to prioritize his fitness and consistency on the field.
Big goals for club and country
As Salisu continues his recovery, Monaco will hope to see the best of their defensive powerhouse next season.
For Ghana, his return to peak form is vital ahead of the upcoming World Cup qualifiers in September.
If he can stay injury-free, Salisu’s combination of strength, tactical awareness, and ball-playing ability could once again make him one of Africa’s top defenders.
Until then, fans will be watching closely, both on social media and on the pitch, as Salisu aims to balance the glamour of Monaco life with the grit needed to succeed at the highest level.
