Former Adrian, the goalkeeper for Liverpool, has made a cheeky attempt to recruit Mohamed Salah for his new squad.

Adrian, who was with Anfield for five years, departed the club this summer and joined La Liga giants Real Betis on a free transfer (Adrian, 37).

Adrian didn’t only try and convince Salah to jump ship, but also had a crack at luring Kostas Tsimakas to Betis by presenting him with his own personalised shirt.

Adrian has returned to Betis after rising through the youth ranks at the club during the early stages of his career.

The keeper leaves the Premier League having made 139 appearances and kept 39 clean sheets in England’s top flight for Liverpool and West Ham.

Adrian started his career with Betis

As the Betis team prepares to face his former club Liverpool in a pre-season exhibition tonight, the Spanish shot-stopper is in the United States with the rest of the team.

Adrian capitalized on his proximity to his former teammates by staging an optimistic hoax on Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian superstar was presented with a Betis shirt by the former West Ham keeper, which featured the number 11 and the word “Salah” on the reverse.

Salah and Adrian posed for a photograph while holding the shirt, which elicited a humorous response from the official Real Betis Instagram account.

The audacious attempt to persuade Salah to join Betis was also well-received by fans, who responded in the comments section.

“Gave me a heart attack!” one individual wrote.

Another individual commented, “The transfer window is the most unfavorable in history, and the club is even engaging in trolling.”

The third individual proposed that Salah could serve as a backup to Betis winger Juanmi, stating, “Would be a nice backup to Juanmi!”

Additionally, a fourth individual made a jest, asking, “Is he joining the Betis B team?”
