Turkish club Trabzonspor has initiated negotiations to sign former Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah. The 34-year-old Egyptian international is reportedly in talks to join as a free agent after his departure from Liverpool at the end of last season. Trabzonspor announced that Salah is scheduled to arrive in Istanbul on Wednesday, with further details about his welcome in Trabzon to be communicated through official club channels.
