Mohamed Salah said in his last interview with the Italian press that he’s so delighted after the performance he gave since his arrival to Fiorentina.
After qualifying to the Europa League semi-finals he told the press:
” Fiorentina were strong even before my arrival . Honestly , I’m enjoying being here and my objective is to reach the final game with the team ” .
Salah didn’t take a decision about whether he’s going to stay with Fiorentina or return to Chelsea.
” Chelsea gave me the opportunity to reach that level . I still have one month to make a decision about my future ” .
Fiorentina CEO Sandro Mencucci is confident that coach Vincenzo Montella and Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah will remain at the Serie A club next season.
“They are two key elements. Montella said several times he wants to stay, then there will be no problems,” he told Sky News on Friday.
Mencucci also revealed that Salah wants to stay, saying the young Egyptian is idolised in Florence and is at the heart of the squad. “We will have both next year in Florence,” the Viola chief said confidently.
Salah joined Fiorentina in January on loan from Chelsea, giving the team a much-needed boost.
The Egyptian 22-year-old has since helped the team reach the semi-final of Coppa Italia, where they succumbed to Juventus. The team has also reached the Europa League semi-finals for the first time since 2008.
Fiorentina are reportedly ready to break the bank to cash in the buy-out option, reportedly set at 18 million euros.
