Mohamed Salah's start to life in Turkey has taken a disastrous turn after Trabzonspor crashed out of the Europa League in humiliating fashion. The Turkish outfit suffered a 5-0 aggregate defeat to Ferencvaros, prompting manager Fatih Tekke to resign on live television immediately following the final whistle.
Former Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah opened his Trabzonspor account in style with a match-winning brace in a 2-1 victory over Istanbul Basaksehir on Sunday. The Egyptian star struck in either half, overcoming Eldor Shomurodov's penalty equaliser, to secure his new club's first Turkish Super Lig win of the 2026-27 campaign.
Karim Benzema has been offered to Trabzonspor as negotiations with Al Hilal continue without a final agreement. The stunning development has sparked simultaneous talks between the Turkish club and the French star.
Mohamed Salah deserves “respect” for not choosing the “easy option”, John Barnes has told GOAL, with the Liverpool legend insisting that the Egyptian King’s successor at Anfield will not be under “pressure” to emulate a modern day great. Nobody has stepped into those shoes as yet, with a Reds icon preparing to open a new chapter in his career at Trabzonspor.
Egyptian icon Mohamed Salah was left visibly bewildered after receiving one of the most unconventional signing bonuses in football history following his move to Trabzonspor. The former Liverpool superstar, who recently traded the Premier League for the Turkish Super Lig, was presented with a unique gift that extended far beyond the usual luxury cars or watches.
Mohamed Salah has officially signed a two-year contract with Turkish side Trabzonspor following his departure from Liverpool. The Egyptian legend arrives in the Super Lig as a free agent after an incredible nine-year spell on Merseyside where he won the Premier League and Champions League.
