The 20 year old defender earned his maiden call-up to the Black Stars but will now have to wait till next year should he fail to recover in time to join his colleagues in camp

The injury situation was announced by his club ahead of the international break

“Salisu will have to wait for his debut with the Ghanaian national team,” Valladolid announced on their official website

“The left-back, who has had a dragging back discomfort for several weeks, reported sharp pain in the lower back after the game against Deportivo Alavés that requires sports rest”

The defender might still join the Black Stars depending on the severity of the injured sustained over the weekend
