Mohamed Salah signs two‑year deal with Turkey's Trabzonspor FAST-MOVING
Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah, 34, has agreed to a two‑year contract with Turkish Süper Lig club Trabzonspor. The deal includes a €17 million guaranteed salary per season, a €5 million signing fee and a clause granting the player 20‑25 % of revenue from shirts bearing his name.
Trabzonspor announced the transfer through a KAP public‑disclosure filing and said negotiations had begun after Besiktas withdrew from talks. A signing ceremony is scheduled for 6 August at the club’s Papara Park stadium. Salah is expected to travel on a private jet from Mykonos (Greece) to Istanbul on 5 August and then fly to Trabzon later that day.
Club president Ertuğrul Doğan confirmed the arrangements and highlighted the commercial impact of the move, which has attracted extensive coverage across Turkey, Europe and the Middle East.
