In-form Mohammed Salisu named in Ligue 1 Team of the Week after Monaco stun PSG

Black Stars defender Mohammed Salisu has been named in the French Ligue 1 team of the week for matchday 14.

The towering centre-back starred for AS Monaco as they defeated European champions Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 at the Stade de Louis, courtesy a Takumi Minamino second half strike.

His impressive display comes days after his Man of the Match performance for Monaco in the UEFA Champions League against Pafos.

Salisu is joined in the Team of the Week by Austrian-Ghanaian centre-back Samson Baidoo, who helped Lens to an important win over Angers to send the Red and Gold to the summit of the table for the first time since 2004.

Others in the tam are Florent Thauvin of Lens, Timothy Weah of Olympique Marseille, Lille's Berke Ozer - goalkeeper of the week, Yanis Zouaoui of Le Havre and Corretin Tolisso of Lyon.

Hugo Magnetti of Brest, Valentin Rongier of Stade Rennais, Laurent Abergel and Sambou Soumano of Lorient complete the team.

Salisu is enjoying an outstanding campaign despite the slow start to the season.

Below is the TOTW:
