Trabzonspor aim to sign Mohamed Salah this week after opening transfer talks

Trabzonspor have opened transfer negotiations with Mohamed Salah, according to The Guardian, with the Turkish Super Lig side hoping to sign the Egypt forward later this week.

“Negotiations have been launched to transfer professional footballer Mohamed Salah, who is in a free status, to our club,” the club said in a statement. The club chairman added that Salah is expected to undergo a medical on Wednesday.

Salah left Liverpool after nine years at the club, becoming a free agent this summer. Trabzonspor are now aiming to move quickly to secure his signature, though no deal has been confirmed as of yet.

For now, fans will have to wait to see whether the Egyptian international makes the switch to the Turkish league. Further coverage of the transfer and related match highlights will be available on this site as the story develops.
