Mohamed Salah reunites with young fan Isaac Kearney in Turkey

Trabzonspor arranged a special reunion in Turkey between Mohamed Salah and his young supporter, Isaac Kearney. Isaac, who has Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, gained international recognition after Salah and Virgil van Dijk visited his school in England.

Following Salah’s recent move from Liverpool to Trabzonspor, the Turkish club flew Isaac and his family to Turkey. The reunion included a surprise meeting at the club’s training ground and Isaac walking onto the pitch alongside Salah during a Europa League play-off match against Ferencváros.

Isaac’s family has since declined all media interview requests to allow the child time to recover from the intense activity. They noted that while Isaac is doing well, the recent whirlwind of events and global attention has been overwhelming for him.
