After nine years at Liverpool, filled with trophies, memorable moments, and an abundance of goals, Mohamed Salah has opted to continue his career in Turkey. The Egyptian forward has signed a two-year contract with Trabzonspor and has already been unveiled to fans, who gave him an exceptionally warm welcome, with thousands cheering him on and seeking photos or autographs.

Salah's Salary

—  

To persuade him to join, the Turkish club presented a lucrative offer to the former Roma and Fiorentina forward. In addition to an annual salary of €10 million, Salah will also receive a substantial signing bonus of €7 million, along with performance-related incentives. The club clarified in a statement to the Turkish Stock Exchange: "Under the agreement, the player will be paid an annual salary of €10,000,000 for each sporting season and a signing bonus of €7,000,000, totalling €17,000,000 guaranteed. The agreement also includes the payment of bonuses linked to achieving specific objectives each season."

Earnings from Shirt Sales

—  

The agreement Salah signed with Trabzonspor also includes additional benefits tied to shirt sales and other commercial products bearing his name that the club will sell. The official announcement further states: "As part of the image rights contract signed with the player, Mohamed Salah will receive 20% of the revenue generated from the sale of dedicated products marketed by our merchandising company." At 34, the former Liverpool number 11 will therefore have the opportunity to extend his career in a league (less demanding than the Premier League) like the Turkish one, while also significantly boosting his bank balance.
