Saints Central Defensive Duo Going To World Cup
Mohammed Salisu has become the second Southampton player to be called up for the World Cup after it was announced this morning he would be in the Ghana squad for the tournament in Quatar.
Salisu will join Armel Bella-Kotchap who has been selected for the Germany squad.
Sadly their partner at the back Duje Caleta-Car who had been in an initial 36 man squad for Croatia did not make the final cut, he will be in exhalted company though with James Ward Prowse again being ignored by Gareth Southgate as well as Romeo Lavia who had been tipped to be a surprise pick for Belgium.
