Mohamed Salah set for Trabzonspor signing as club plans ceremony at Papara Park | OneFootball

Mohamed Salah, 34, is due to sign for Trabzonspor on Thursday evening at Papara Park.

According to L'Équipe, the club in Türkiye has spent the past 24 hours building up his arrival across social media, and it notes Turkish media report he has accepted a two-year deal worth €17m plus a €5m bonus and 20% of shirt profits.

Talks were announced on Tuesday night with the former Liverpool forward. Since then, posts have shown live flight tracking, arrivals in Istanbul and Trabzon, and a video from the plane with #SalahIsComing. Images also featured the number 61, a smiling photo during a successful medical, and a shirt being printed with the number 10.

By early Wednesday evening, a signing ceremony at 19:30 on Thursday at Papara Park had been trailed, alongside a short video and a members-only YouTube live to follow his flight from Istanbul to Trabzon.

Supporters were invited to fill Papara Park wearing the new-season shirts to witness the first step of an unforgettable adventure. The shift in messaging, no longer stating only that talks had begun, suggested the official announcement was close.
