Mohamed Salah was greeted by cheering Trabzonspor fans in Istanbul on Wednesday as he closed in on a move to the Turkish club.
The Liverpool icon wore the team’s blue and burgundy striped shirt after flying in on a private jet to complete the deal.
Earlier he was filmed aboard the jet pulling on his new jersey.
“Trabzon are you ready? I can hear you. See you very soon,” Salah said in a video message posted on the club’s official X channel.
Turkish TV showed still images of Salah wearing a shirt with No. 61 on it as he arrived in Istanbul, where hundreds of chanting fans waited to greet him. NTV also broadcast the Egyptian signing a Trabzon shirt and said his official signing ceremony would be held Thursday in the Black Sea city.
