French Ligue 1 side, AS Monaco have agreed a deal with\u00a0Southampton\u00a0for the signing of defender\u00a0Mohammed Salisu.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old will fly to Monaco to have his medicals next week after agreeing personal terms.<\/p>\n

Salisu was not included in the Southampton squad for their pre-season friendlies against AZ Alkmaar on Saturday or\u00a0Bournemouth\u00a0on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fulham\u00a0had been close to agreeing a \u00a315million deal to sign Salisu earlier this month before Marco Silva\u2019s side switched their attentions to a successful pursuit of Calvin Bassey.<\/p>\n

Salisu made his last appearance for Southampton in March. He was left out towards the end of the season due to issues with his commitment and application in working back from injury.<\/p>\n

He, however,\u00a0featured 22 times in the Premier League last season.<\/p>\n

His Southampton contract expires next summer and, having previously held talks over extending his deal, looked unlikely to stay following the club\u2019s relegation to the Championship.Mohammed Salisu was part of the Black Stars squad that featured at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and scored just a goal.<\/p>\n
