Mohamed Salah leads the Turkish Super Lig scoring charts with 7 goals and has captured the September Player of the Month award following his summer move to Trabzonspor from Liverpool.
Trabzonspor Forward Claims September Player of the Month
The Egyptian forward claimed the individual honor after competing against a shortlist that included Gift Orban of Amedspor, Alexandros Kiziridis of Corum FK, and Serhat Oztasdelen of Icel Spor.
The voting process combined multiple assessment streams. A panel of commentators and experts from HT Spor and Mackolik contributed 30% of the scoring, public voting across X and Instagram accounted for another 30%, and journalists and editors from both organizations provided 30%. Player performance metrics made up the remaining 10% of the final result.
Hat-Trick Against Galatasaray Highlights September Campaign
During the month, Salah made three league appearances, scoring 4 goals and providing 2 assists. His standout performance came during the sixth matchday when he netted a hat-trick against Galatasaray and also supplied an assist for the fourth goal in a high-stakes fixture.
The club’s early autumn fixtures also featured a 3-0 victory over Samsunspor, during which Salah contributed a crucial assist for the third goal to help solidify his squad’s standing.

To be honest, I didn’t expect his performance to be this influential right from the beginning. I thought he would gradually rise to the level of Salah that we know and appreciate through the process of adapting here.
