Friends of Mohamed Salah claim he is on his way to Liverpool.

The Liverpool Echo says Salah's protracted Liverpool transfer took another twist on Sunday when an apparent friend of the Roma winger wished him "good luck" at Anfield next season.

Egyptian sources say Liverpool have agreed to meet Roma's €40 million asking price, with a medical on Merseyside expected for Tuesday.

And on Sunday, a friend of Salah's appeared to wish the Egyptian well at Liverpool for next season on Facebook.

"Good luck bro in Liverpool , you are a legend and you deserve to be in anfield" posted Facebook user Mohamed Ali on Sunday afternoon.

Mohamed, who lives in Stockholm according to his Facebook account, also claimed that the transfer was complete on Saturday evening.

"Congratulations, you Egyptians!" wrote Mohamed.

"Mohamed Salah officially joined Liverpool,, booking tickets and traveling Tuesday sign".

It's unclear how close the Facebook user is to Roma star Salah, but the pair have met numerous times with the winger happy to take pictures alongside the fan.
