Salisu signed a four-year contract worth £10.9 million.
On Tuesday, 8 September 2020, he was spotted at the club's training ground, Staplewood Campus in Marchwood, Hampshire.

Sept. 1 Manchester United should keep a close eye on Salisu's progress as he follows Van Dijk's path
Manchester United may not have signed Mohammed Salisu this summer, but that does not mean they should forget about him altogether.
Prior to his £10.9million switch to Southampton (Sky Sports), the centre-back was linked with a move to Old Trafford.
Given his fine form in La Liga last season, the rumour was an exciting one. But, despite ESPN claiming United had enquired about the defender, he ended up not in Manchester but on the south coast.
