Egyptian star confirms emotional Anfield exit, ending one of club’s eras
London
Mohamed Salah has announced he will leave Liverpool FC at the end of the season, bringing the curtain down on a remarkable nine-year spell that cemented his status among the club’s all-time greats.
The 33-year-old forward, who has scored 255 goals in 435 appearances, confirmed he had reached an agreement with the club to depart a year before his contract was due to expire. His exit marks the end of a defining era for Liverpool, during which he was the focal point of one of the most successful teams in recent history.
In an emotional message to fans, Salah described Liverpool as more than just a club, calling it a “passion, history and spirit” that became an inseparable part of his life. His departure, however, comes amid a slightly strained relationship with the club following a dip in form and a public fallout with manager Arne Slot earlier this season.
Salah joined Liverpool from AS Roma in 2017 and quickly became a global superstar. Alongside Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, he formed a formidable attacking trio under Jurgen Klopp, leading the club to multiple trophies, including the UEFA Champions League and two Premier League titles.
Individually, Salah’s achievements have been equally impressive. He won the Premier League Golden Boot four times and currently sits third on Liverpool’s all-time scoring list, behind Ian Rush and Roger Hunt.
Despite a dip in form this season and a recent muscle injury, Salah remains determined to finish strongly. The club has stated that he is fully focused on helping Liverpool achieve the best possible results before his departure.
There has been no official confirmation regarding his next destination, though interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia has been reported in recent years. Leaving as a free agent means Liverpool will not receive a transfer fee.
As the season approaches its conclusion, fans are expected to give Salah a fitting farewell, celebrating a legacy defined by goals, trophies, and unforgettable moments at Anfield.
