Valter de Salvo, former director of performance and medical field for Real Madrid, believes that Mohamed Salah, the star of Liverpool and the Egyptian national team, can succeed with the royal team or Barcelona if he decides to move to the Spanish League.
De Salvo previously worked for Real Madrid in two states as well as with Manchester United at the request of Sir Alex Ferguson and is currently the Director of Performance and Science at Aspire Qatar Academy.
FilGoal.com conducted an interview with De Salvo about Salah, Real Madrid and the competition for the Spanish League title, and his opinion on the performance of his country, Italy, under the leadership of his coach Roberto Mancini.
Will Mohamed Salah move to the Spanish League?
Salah is an incredible player, he is very strong and he has reached the summit. He won the Champions League and the English Premier League is one of the best players in the world.
It depends on him if he wants to leave Liverpool, as he plays in the English Premier League, which is a very wonderful tournament, but some players like to enter new challenges and compete in different championship competitions to gain more experience.
I trust that if Salah moves to Real Madrid or Barcelona, he will enjoy the experience and test a new way of playing and that wherever he goes he will become a hero.
Will he choose Real Madrid to become the first star in the team or Barcelona with Lionel Messi?
The superstar can play anywhere, Cristiano Ronaldo is a clear example of this.
Ronaldo was a great player at Manchester United as well as Real Madrid and now with Juventus at the age of 36.
Great players can make the difference wherever they go, and wherever Salah moves he will shine as he is a great player and among the best in the world and he will definitely succeed in the Spanish League if he moves to it.
What do you think of Real Madrid with Zinedine Zidane?
Real Madrid is a great club and so is Zidane. I trust he does a great job and we must not forget that he won the Champions League three times in a row.
Can he win the Champions League this season?
I do not know that there are teams that play well like Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, but we must not forget that football has many curves, but in the long term I am confident that Zidane is the right man for Real Madrid.
Zidane knows the club and the fans well, and with patience, he will return to compete.
What do you think of the competition for the Spanish League title?
Atletico Madrid presents a great season and the competition is tough for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Atletico coach Diego Simeone has a very strong mentality.
I worked with Simeone for four years in Lazio, Italy.
This season, it will be difficult for the two Clásico poles to win the league, perhaps next season.
Will Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappe move to Real Madrid?
Two great players who suit Real Madrid, but joining them will not be easy, as they play for big teams as well.
But the history of Real Madrid was full of many great players and surely in the future there will be similar ones.
What do you think of Italy’s performance with Roberto Mancini?
We were at the bottom after not qualifying for the 2018 World Cup but now we’re playing the most incredible way, winning 10 matches, doing great results and playing well as well.
I think Italy is a strong contender for the Euro 2020 title and will be the same in the 2022 World Cup.
