Former Liverpool striker Craig Bellamy is backing Mohamed Salah for big success at Anfield.
Salah sealed his switch to Anfield from AS Roma last Thursday, having established himself as one of Serie A's most productive attacking players over the last two-and-a-half seasons.
“I remember watching him when he was at Basel and he looked a very good player," the Welshman told Liverpoolfc.com.
“He deservedly got his move to Chelsea, it didn't quite work out for him [there]… but his spell at Roma was very, very good. He has pace to burn and looks to go in behind, which is what Liverpool need, and hopefully he'll work out to be a very good signing."
Bellamy continued: “What I like about him is that he's always looking to get beyond and get behind the fullback and that's really what they need.
“Coutinho, Firmino, they come towards the ball a lot, which is great because they're excellent players and they make things happen, but you need runners.
“Mane made such a big difference because he was always looking to go in behind, so for me it's an intelligent signing, a signing of the type of player they really need at this moment."
