The move comes after Salah and Liverpool mutually agreed to terminate his contract a year early, ending his stay at Anfield following the conclusion of the 2025-26 season.

Salah's departure closed one of the most successful chapters in Liverpool's modern history. Since arriving from Italian club AS Roma in the summer of 2017, the Egyptian established himself among the club's greatest-ever players, playing a pivotal role in Liverpool's domestic and European success.

During his time at Anfield, Salah helped Liverpool win two Premier League titles, the UEFA Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, two League Cups and the FA Community Shield.

The prolific forward scored 255 goals in 435 appearances for the Merseyside club, finishing third on Liverpool's all-time scoring list. He also claimed the Premier League Golden Boot on four occasions and collected several individual honours during his trophy-laden stint.

Salah's final season at Liverpool proved challenging, with the forward struggling for regular playing time and reportedly falling out with then head coach Arne Slot before both parties agreed to bring his contract to an early conclusion.

The 34-year-old now embarks on a fresh challenge in Turkey with Trabzonspor, one of the country's most decorated clubs.
