Mohamed Salah is expected to begin a new chapter in his professional career on Thursday, when the Egypt forward is due to sign for Turkish club Trabzonspor on a free transfer.
The proposed move follows the conclusion of Salah’s nine-season spell with Liverpool, which ended at the close of last season after the player and club reached a mutual agreement to terminate his contract early.
Salah’s anticipated arrival would bring an end to his time at Anfield, where he established himself as one of the most productive attacking players in the club’s history. His next destination will be Trabzonspor, with the transfer expected to be completed without a fee.
The 257 goals Mohamed Salah scored for Liverpool came in 442 appearances during his nine seasons with the English club. Those figures represent the scale of the contribution he made during a prolonged period at Anfield and provide the main context for the significance of his move to Turkey.
Although the agreement with Trabzonspor is expected to be signed on Thursday, the available details indicate that the transfer has been arranged as a free move. That follows the decision by Salah and Liverpool to bring his contract to an early conclusion rather than continue their relationship beyond the end of the previous campaign.
For Salah, the switch marks a major change after almost a decade in English football. His departure from Liverpool closes a period defined by regular appearances and a substantial goals tally, while the move to Trabzonspor offers him a fresh professional setting in Turkey.
The Egyptian’s Liverpool career lasted nine seasons and produced 257 goals across 442 matches. Those numbers will remain central to any assessment of his time at the club, particularly as he prepares to leave following an agreement reached by both sides.
The next step is therefore expected to be formalised in Trabzon, where Salah is due to put pen to paper with Trabzonspor on Thursday. Until the signing is completed, the move remains an anticipated agreement rather than a concluded transfer, but the planned free switch would take the 257-goal former Liverpool forward into a new phase of his career.
Salah’s arrival would also make Trabzonspor the latest club associated with the experienced Egypt international after his long spell with Liverpool. The immediate detail is clear: following nine seasons, 442 appearances and 257 goals in England, he is expected to continue his career in Turkey once the agreement with Trabzonspor is signed.
