Mohamed Salah has officially ended months of speculation over his future by signing a two-year contract with Turkish club Trabzonspor following the expiration of his Liverpool deal.

The move has surprised many football fans, with the Egyptian forward previously linked to clubs in the Saudi Pro League and Major League Soccer. Instead, the 34-year-old has chosen to remain in Europe and begin the next chapter of his career in Turkey.

Salah leaves Liverpool after establishing himself as one of the Premier League’s greatest players, enjoying a trophy-filled spell and becoming one of the club’s all-time leading goal scorers.

His arrival is a major boost for Trabzonspor, who will now look to the experienced forward to strengthen their bid for success in Turkish football.
