Trabzonspor is pursuing a high-profile addition to transform a promising summer into a potentially historic season by targeting former Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah.
Having departed from Anfield, Salah remains free, offering the Turkish club a chance to elevate its status and attract attention across the league without a transfer fee.
The team finished third last season and seeks a match‑winning quality upgrade. Salah’s proven goal‑scoring, creative playmaking, and commercial appeal could address those needs immediately.
Negotiations between Trabzonspor and Salah’s representatives have reportedly advanced, with the club nearing a complete agreement after Beşiktaş halted its own pursuit.
From a sporting perspective, the winger would bring elite finishing, experience, and the ability to change tight games single‑handedly. His presence on the right could also open space for the central striker and attacking midfielders.
With other clubs still interested, any new approach could raise salary demands and complicate negotiations, making careful wage management essential.
Club president stated a formal agreement remains pending, emphasizing that discussions with representatives do not equate to finalized personal terms or a guaranteed free transfer.
If secured, Salah could instantly become the defining signing of the window, turning a third‑place side into a genuine title contender.
Reports suggest Liverpool may receive another bid for the midfielder, indicating his exit is likely to proceed.
