Mohamed Salah sets remarkable Turkish Super Lig record after stunning Trabzonspor hat-trick

Egyptian international star Mohamed Salah continues to make headlines in Turkey after producing a sensational performance for Trabzonspor in their emphatic 4-0 victory over Galatasaray.

Salah was the standout performer at the Papara Park Stadium last Saturday, scoring a remarkable hat-trick to inspire Trabzonspor to a dominant win in the sixth round of the Turkish Super Lig.

The treble was Salah’s first hat-trick since moving to the Turkish top flight and further underlined his impressive start to life in Turkey.

According to Turkish newspaper Sabah, Salah has also written his name into the Super Lig record books following his latest goalscoring exploits.

The Egyptian captain has now scored seven goals in the league, making him the highest-scoring player aged 34 or above in the competition.

Salah’s latest achievement adds another milestone to an already decorated European career, with the forward continuing to demonstrate his goalscoring quality despite being in the latter stages of his playing career.

His hat-trick against Galatasaray also proved decisive in one of the biggest fixtures of the Turkish football calendar, as Trabzonspor secured all three points in convincing fashion.

The Egyptian star will now be hoping to maintain his remarkable form as Trabzonspor continue their campaign, with his goals expected to play a major role in the club’s ambitions this season.
