Black Stars defender, Gideon Mensah, has marked his 50th appearance for Ligue 2 side Auxerre.

The 25-year-old reached a new milestone at the French outfit after starring in the 4-0 thrashing of Laval.

Mensah joined Auxerre on a permanent deal after leaving Bordeaux in the summer of 2022 and has been a key figure at the club.

"50 Games & Counting for Les Diplomates, Auxerre. Fully focused till the ultimate end of the season," wrote the left-back on social media.

The former Red Bull Salzburg defender is hoping to help the Ligue 1 leaders achieve a quick return to Ligue 1.

Auxerre sits top of the table in Ligue 2, holding a three-point lead over promotion rivals Angers with four games to end the season.

Mensah missed Ghana's international friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda in March due to injury.

However, he is expected to be fit for June's World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic.
