The former Liverpool forward joined the Super Lig side on a two-year deal at the start of August and made his debut for the club from the bench in their 1-1 draw at Kasimpasa last week.

Salah was named in the starting line-up for Sunday's clash with Basaksehir and made an instant impact, opening the scoring in the eighth minute. Basaksehir levelled in the 19th minute when Eldor Shomurodov slotted home from the penalty spot, but Salah restored his side’s lead just three minutes into the second half.

His brace was enough to clinch victory for Trabzonspor, who return to Super Lig action on August 31 against Amed SK. More stories on Read Next
