Salah Arrives in Turkey for Trabzonspor Talks

  • On Tuesday, Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor announced they have entered negotiations to sign free agent Mohamed Salah, aiming to finalize the transfer this week.
  • Salah, 34, became a free agent after leaving Liverpool this summer following nine years at the club, where he won the Premier League twice and the Champions League once.
  • His output waned last season, yielding seven goals in 27 league matches and a public spat with then-manager Arne Slot, while previous negotiations with Istanbul club Besiktas stalled.
  • Trabzonspor Chairman Ertugrul Dogan said Salah will arrive in Istanbul on Wednesday for medical checks before traveling to Trabzon, with the club expecting a two-year contract signing on Thursday.
  • The signing positions Trabzonspor, the fourth-biggest team in Turkey, to strengthen their squad before entering the Europa League playoff round after finishing third in the Super Lig last season.
