AS Monaco’s preparation for its upcoming French Ligue 1 tie on Sunday, February 4 has been very good according to Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu.
The Black Stars player said this in a pre game presser as the French Principality team heads into the tie with both teams coming off drawn games.
Monaco drew 3-3 with Olympique Marseille despite ending the game with nine men while Le Havre needed two late goals from Black Stars captain Andre Dede Ayew to draw 3-3 with Lorient.
Salisu highlighted Le Havre’s strengths in his extensive interview with Monaco’s media channel including his take on Ghana’s disappointing run at the 2023 AFCON. (Click highlighted text to read full story)
