Drogheda United is arranging a historic pre-season-style friendly against Turkish club Trabzonspor, with an October date confirmed, according to reports. The match is expected to take place at Trabzonspor’s Şenol Güneş Stadium, which has a reported capacity of around 41,000.
The fixture has also raised the prospect of Mohamed Salah featuring, as his potential involvement with his new club could lead to him meeting Drogheda during the same window. One outlet frames the matchup as “in line” to include Salah, while another highlights the friendly itself and notes the possibility of a Salah appearance tied to his current club situation. Neither source provides details on player confirmations, ticketing, or match logistics beyond the agreed date and opponent.
Overall, the outlets agree on the core development: Drogheda United will play Trabzonspor in October, and Salah’s name appears in coverage only as a potential factor if he is available for the Turkish club.
