Former Egypt international Mido has backed Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah to join Real Madrid.
The retired striker, who counts Tottenham Hotspur, Middlesbrough and Wigan Athletic among his former clubs, hailed his compatriot after he bagged a brace in the Reds' 3-0 win over Southampton on Saturday:
The goals took Salah's tally to 14 for the season in 18 appearances, putting him level with last year's top scorer Philippe Coutinho—who scored the same number in twice as many games—and he also has four assists.
Salah's electric pace and direct running have seen him slot perfectly into Liverpool's front three alongside Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, and along with Coutinho, the attacking quartet have great chemistry together, allowing them to cause opposition defences no end of problems.
