Mohamed Salah has a new club: Egypt's gem picks surprise move | OneFootball

Mohamed Salah already has a new destination. The Egyptian forward, after bringing his historic spell at Liverpool to an end, was confirmed as the star signing for Turkey’s Trabzonspor, which made the start of negotiations official and later announced an agreement to sign him on a two-season contract.

The arrival of the 34-year-old attacker represents one of the most eye-catching signings of the European transfer window. He joins as a free agent after ending a nine-season cycle at Liverpool, and Salah chose to continue his career in the Turkish Super Lig, where he will be the standout figure for the Trabzon-based side.

As a result, the Turkish club has pulled off a blockbuster move with the signing of Salah. “Talks have begun regarding the transfer of professional footballer Mohamed Salah to our club,” the team posted.

During his time at Liverpool, Salah became one of the biggest idols in the club’s recent history. He won the Premier League, the Champions League, the Club World Cup, the FA Cup, and the English League Cup, while also collecting multiple individual honors and cementing himself as one of the greatest African footballers of all time.

Salah was one of the standout players for Egypt, which gave the Argentina national team serious trouble in the Round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup, when it led 2-0 before suffering an epic comeback in Atlanta. The “Pharaoh” has three goals in World Cup history, having scored across the two editions in which he has played: Russia 2018 and the recent 2026 World Cup.

The deal was completed after several days of speculation. Trabzonspor’s management had even initially denied that there was an agreement, although negotiations continued until a successful outcome was reached and ended with the Turkish club’s official announcement.

Salah will travel to Turkey in the coming hours to complete the final administrative formalities, undergo his medical examination, and be officially presented to Trabzonspor fans, who are adding one of the biggest stars in world football for the 2026/27 season.
