“I know that my move to Fiorentina generated a lot of interest in Egypt and I hope to do well for the fans in Egypt too.
Mohamed Salah landed in Italy for his Fiorentina move and hopes to score against Tottenham again.
The ex-Chelsea winger arrived on loan with option to buy as part of the Juan Cuadrado deal.
“Thank you very much, I am happy to be here. I want to succeed here and hope that we can succeed as a team,” he told Viola Channel.
“I know that my move to Fiorentina generated a lot of interest in Egypt and I hope to do well for the fans in Egypt too.
“Yesterday I watched their game and really liked the team,” he said of the 2-0 Coppa Italia victory over Roma.
Salah is on Fiorentina’s UEFA squad list and reveals he has a good history with their next opponents Spurs.
“I played against Tottenham two times in the Europa League with Basel. They were very good games for me and I scored against Tottenham, my first goal, so that was an important moment for me and for Basel.
“I also put in five assists in that competition and am fired up for this chance.”
Salah is not the first Egyptian to play for Fiorentina, as Ahmed Hegazy left during the January transfer window.
“He advised me to come here and play more often. He also told me there are great players who are very nice and this experience will help my professional growth.
“I play right wing, but also left-wing and sometimes as a striker.”
