Mo Salah's FINAL ACT... Why Turkey?

Mo Salah’s last dance as a professional footballer will be nothing like Ronaldo’s or Messi’s.

The Egyptian superstar’s surprise move to Turkey’s fourth biggest club, Trabzonspor, is all part of a final act which Salah, and his new club, hope will shift the balance of power in European football.

Gabby, Mark & Nedum break down the cultural and sporting impact of Salah’s move with Guardian football writer Emre Sarigul who claims that god-like status awaits Mo Salah on the banks of the Black Sea.

Elsewhere the European Athletic Championships takes place in Birmingham this week and the guys welcome Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson’s coach Jenny Meadows onto the show to look forward to a star studded 800m final which could well see World records broken and jaws drop to the floor.

As well as all that, Gabby & Mark grill Nedum on his lack of knowledge of the football transfer market - the results are truly shocking!
