Samuel Eto'o Says Barcelona 'Would Be Better For' Mohamed Salah Than Real Madrid

Mohamed Salah should choose Barcelona over Real Madrid if he opts for a transfer away from Liverpool, according to Samuel Eto'o.

The latter played for both giants of La Liga but believes Salah belongs at the Camp Nou despite links with Los Blancos. Eto'o offered his advice, per BBC Sport: "Barcelona would be a better fit. Real gave me the opportunity to leave Africa but I know Barcelona's style and I think it would be better for him."

Eto'o also thinks moving to the Spanish top flight is something Salah should consider: "If he has the chance to play in the best league of the world, which is the Spanish one, he has to sign for Barcelona.
