Salah Arrives in Turkey Ahead of Expected Move to Trabzonspor
Hundreds of fans greeted the Egyptian forward at Ataturk Airport before he left for a medical check.
Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah has arrived in Turkey ahead of his expected move to Turkish club Trabzonspor.
Trabzonspor announced a day earlier that they were in negotiations with Salah, and club chairman Ertugrul Dogan said they expected to sign the 34-year-old on a free transfer at a ceremony in the Black Sea city on Thursday.
"Trabzon, are you ready? I can hear you. See you very soon," Salah said in a video posted by the club on X.
"Everywhere is Trabzon to us," he added while wearing a Trabzonspor kit, referring to the club's motto.
Upon arriving at Ataturk Airport, Salah was met by hundreds of fans. He waved at supporters and initiated a traditional chant with them, before departing for a medical check and a later planned flight east to Trabzon.
Salah left Liverpool this summer after nine years at the club. During that spell he scored 257 goals in 442 appearances, winning the Premier League twice and the Champions League once.
