Confirmed: Mohamed Salah completes loan switch from Chelsea to Roma

Mohamed Salah has joined Roma on loan from Chelsea

MOHAMED SALAH has completed his loan move to Roma from Chelsea.

 

The Egypt international was at the centre of a legal tug-of-war after Fiorentina believed they had agreed to bring him back this season.

However Salah was determined to push through a move to Roma.

And today the capital club comfirmed their acquisition.

Salah joined Chelsea from Swiss side Basle in 2014.

But, despite Jose Mourinho beating Liverpool to his siganture, he rarely featured for the Blues and was sent out on loan in January.

 

He impressed in Florence, scoring six times and making three assists, as Fiorentina finished fourth.

Salah told Roma TV: “I think Roma are one of the biggest clubs in the world and I'm happy to be in this team. 

"Ithink everybody here has ambition and everybody wants to win the title. Everybody will give their best to make the fans happy.”

Chelsea have confirmed the agreement includes the option to make the move permanent at any point in the season.
