Mohamed Salah, who joined Trabzonspor at the beginning of the season, has made a remarkable start to the Süper Lig in the burgundy-blue jersey. The Egyptian footballer has directly contributed to 9 goals in his first 6 league matches, producing 7 goals and 2 assists.
This performance has been recorded as the highest goal contribution among the first 6-match league starts Salah has made with different clubs throughout his European career. Surpassing his starts during his time at Basel, Chelsea, Fiorentina, Roma, and Liverpool, the experienced player has quickly become the most decisive figure in the Trabzonspor attack.
Salah stood out particularly with his performance against Galatasaray. In that match, the Egyptian star directly influenced the score with 3 goals and 1 assist, becoming one of the key figures driving the burgundy-blue team's offensive power.
THE MOST PRODUCTIVE START OF HIS CAREER
Having drawn attention in European football with Basel in the 2012-2013 season, Salah later played for Chelsea, Fiorentina, Roma, and Liverpool. The star footballer had strong starts to many seasons during his Liverpool tenure; however, his 9-goal contribution at Trabzonspor marks the peak of his career based on the first 6-match criteria.

Salah's history in top-scorer races is also noteworthy. The Egyptian player, who finished the season as the top scorer 4 times in the Premier League, topped the charts with 32 goals in 2017-2018, 22 in 2018-2019, 23 in 2021-2022, and 29 in 2024-2025.
