Trabzonspor's Mohamed Salah made a strong debut for his new club, netting a hat-trick and providing an assist in a convincing 4-0 win over Galatasaray with 10 men. The Egyptian striker's goal tally for the Turkish Super League now stands at seven in six games, with Salah scoring in the fourth, 44th and 80th minutes. Trabzonspor captain Salah also set up Noah Saviolo for the second goal.
Thierry Henry, a former Arsenal and France star, lauded Salah's performance in a Turkish newspaper, noting the significance of the hat-trick against one of Turkey's top clubs. Henry also used the occasion to defend Salah's departure from Liverpool. "It is clear that Mohamed Salah was never the cause of the problem at Liverpool," Henry stated.
Salah's move to Trabzonspor came after nine years at Liverpool, where he became the club's third-highest scorer with 257 goals in 442 appearances. He joined the Turkish club as a free agent, leaving Liverpool in the summer amid uncertainty over his future, with his contract set to end at the conclusion of the 2025-26 season.
