Mohamed Salah signed a two-year contract with Trabzonspor on Thursday, the Turkish club announced.
Egypt international Salah was a free agent after leaving Liverpool at the end of last season. He flew to Istanbul on Wednesday to complete his move to Trabzonspor and was greeted by throngs of fans on his arrival.

Trabzonspor shared photos of Salah signing his contract on Thursday, before he was presented to fans at the club's stadium, Papara Park. Salah earlier trained with his new teammates for the first time.
"The last couple of days, it's an experience I have never had in my life," Salah said. "I just want to thank everyone of you for being here today and yesterday. You showed me so much love, and I never expected that reception. I'm here to win.''
The 34-year-old Salah established himself as a Premier League great with Liverpool where he won two league titles and the Champions League among eight major honors.

He scored 257 goals in 442 appearances for the Merseyside club and is regarded as one of its greatest players of all time.
He still had a year to run on his contract at Liverpool, but in March he announced he would leave the club after a disappointing campaign, in which he scored only 12 goals and had a public falling out with then-coach Arne Slot.
Trabzonspor are seven-time Turkish champions and finished third last season.
