Mohamed Salah Opens Up About Playing for the Club He Loved as a Child.
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah says he ‘had to make it happen’ when he heard that a move to Anfield was on the cards.
The Egyptian expressed his delight at playing for the club he supported as a young boy, and insisted that Liverpool’s target remains to win a trophy. Salah joined Chelsea in 2014, but failed to impress in the Premier League and moved to Italy
He flourished during two seasons at AS Roma and his performances caught the eye of Jurgen Klopp, who secured the signing of the Egyptian winger for £36.9m – which now seems like a bargain.
Salah has been on sensational form since joining Liverpool last summer, becoming the fastest Liverpool player in history to score 20 goals in the Premier League. He achieved the feat in just 25 games.
Salah said: “Ever since I was a kid, I had been a Liverpool fan – they were my favourite Premier League club,
“I’ve loved the club since I was young and knew this was a team I wanted to play for. I knew the history that this club has and, as soon as I got the chance, I had to make it happen.”
