Mohamed Salah kept Liverpool promise after 'ambitious' Jurgen Klopp claim

Whenever a football team goes through a sustained period of success, you can often look back and pinpoint the defining moments with ease.

With this Liverpool team, there are a handful you could choose from. One of them came on this day five years ago.

On June 22, 2017, Liverpool completed the signing of Mohamed Salah from Roma. Having had an initial bid of £28million rejected, a deal worth £34.3m was eventually completed.

Salah was a player that had been linked with Liverpool for several months, and one that Kopites across the globe were eager to see in a Reds shirt. As has become the norm with transfer rumours in the modern era, the phrase ‘Announce Salah’ was trending, which led to the same tagline being used in jest in the club’s announcement video.
