Milner: Salah signing just what Liverpool need

James Milner has welcomed Mohamed Salah to Liverpool.

The Reds sealed a deal to bring the Egypt international to the club from AS Roma on Thursday evening, with Salah set to officially join up on July 1.

“That's what you need in our team. The way we play, you can't have any passengers," he told Liverpoolfc.com.

“Everyone mucks in and we've got great team spirit. Everyone gets on the front foot and gets the press; it only takes one person not to do it for it to break down.

“He'll fit into that really well, with and without the ball. He's very dangerous with it and causes a lot of problems. And without it, that's so important the way we play.

“Looking at his stats and things like that, he has had a good season. He is a dangerous player and someone who is going to do really well for us, I'm sure."
