Mohamed Salah arrival takes Liverpool a step nearer title - Patrik Berger

Former Liverpool players Paul Ince and Patrik Berger have said they believe the signing of Roma winger Mohamed Salah has moved the club closer to a first Premier League title.

Liverpool confirmed the signing of Salah on Thursday in a deal that could be worth €50 million, according to the Serie A side.

He had been close to joining Liverpool from Basel in January 2014, but instead opted to move to Chelsea.

But he had an unsuccessful spell at Stamford Bridge, making just 19 appearances in two seasons before moving to Fiorentina on loan in 2015 and signing permanently for Roma last summer after a loan spell.
