EGYPTAIR have fuelled rumours Mohamed Salah is on his way to Liverpool after tweeting that he was on a flight.
The Roma star has been linked with a move to Anfield in a deal that could be worth £35million.
Salah was in his homeland and pictured next to the pyramids yesterday but now it seems he is on his way to England to finalise a move back to the Premier League.
The airline was quick to delete the tweet but it has not stopped fans on social media speculating about where Salah was flying to.
Liverpool are only willing to pay £35million for the former Chelsea midfielder.
The Reds valuation falls short of the Italian club’s who have already rejected a £28m bid.
Salah is reported to have already met with Kop boss Jurgen Klopp and agreed personal terms with the club.
Salah, 25, has been a top target for Klopp this summer as he prepares for next season in the Champions League.
He has just enjoyed his best-ever season, scoring 19 goals in all competitions for Roma despite missing around six weeks through Egypt’s run in the Africa Cup of Nations.

Salah was involved in four of Egypt’s five goals with two goals and two assists as he led the Pharaohs to the finals, where they lost 2-1 to Cameroon.
The 24-year-old scored 15 goals and delivered 11 assists in Serie A last season.
That was a far better return than two goals in 19 games for Chelsea in 2014 before being loaned to Fiorentina.
