Mohamed Salah is undoubtedly the biggest signing of the Turkish Süper Lig. The Egyptian star has already played his first minutes for Trabzonspor and could reach another milestone on Thursday by making his Europa League debut with the club.

After making his first appearance in Turkish football, the Liverpool legend now has the opportunity to play his first European match with his new team.



Will Mohamed Salah start for Trabzonspor?

Salah is expected to play a major role when Trabzonspor faces Hungary's Ferencvárosi Torna Club in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League Playoffs.

According to Turkish media reports, the Egyptian forward is being tipped to start, meaning he could be in the starting XI for his first European appearance in a Trabzonspor shirt.

The match is scheduled for Thursday at 1:00 p.m. ET at the Şenol Güneş Sports Complex.

The tie will be decided one week later, with the second leg scheduled for Thursday, August 27, at 2:30 p.m. ET.




How did Salah perform in his Trabzonspor debut?

The former Liverpool star played his first minutes for Trabzonspor last weekend against Kasımpaşa Spor Kulübü.

The match ended in a draw, and although Salah was unable to score on his debut, he had at least a couple of opportunities to find the net and also created a chance that could have resulted in an assist.


Now, the Egyptian star could make his first European appearance for Trabzonspor and begin a new continental chapter following his historic career with Liverpool.
