KEY POINTS

  • Mohamed Salah posted a photo from Kurtdere Plateau in Gümüşhane
  • A fan-made "Salah Plateau" sign and municipal bench were installed
  • Both items vanished overnight under unclear circumstances
  • Village headman says witnesses saw people taking them in fog
  • Locals replaced the sign with a "Salah Rock" plaque

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah shared a photo sitting on a rock at Kurtdere Plateau near Çorak village in Gümüşhane, drawing a surge of visitors to the site. A fan later erected a "Salah Plateau" sign and Trabzon Metropolitan Municipality placed a bench nearby for tourists.

Both the sign and bench disappeared overnight, according to villagers who found them missing the next morning. Çorak village headman Polat Yaşlı said witnesses reported seeing people loading the items in foggy conditions, but the identity and motive remain unknown.

“Right now there is no sign or bench left here. Last evening there was fog, locals say someone came and took them in the fog.”

Locals suspect the removal followed social media backlash over naming the area after the Egyptian footballer. Residents have since installed a new plaque reading "Salah Rock" at the location.
