Liverpool icon Mohamed Salah has officially confirmed his departure from the club. Taking to social media, the award-winning forward revealed that he will be leaving Anfield at the conclusion of the 2025/2026 season.
Bombshell: departure from Liverpool
The news has sent shockwaves across the footballing world. Despite having a contract that technically runs until 2027, the Egyptian “King” reached a mutual agreement with the club to end his legendary nine-year tenure a year early.
A Heartfelt Farewell
In a deeply emotional video message posted Tuesday evening, Salah expressed his profound gratitude to the fans. He admitted that when he first arrived, he never could have imagined how much the city and its people would come to mean to him.
The Spirit of Anfield
“Liverpool is more than just a club,” Salah shared, describing it as a unique blend of passion, history, and spirit. He noted that the deep connection he feels with the team is something that can truly only be understood by those within the Liverpool family.
Reflecting on Glory
Looking back on a career that saw the Reds return to the top of world football, Salah credited the collective resilience of the team. He highlighted how the squad fought through their toughest moments to secure the sport’s most prestigious trophies under both Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot.
A Record-Breaking Legacy
Salah leaves as one of the most prolific players in the club’s history. Since his 2017 move from AS Roma, the 33-year-old has built a staggering resume:
- 255 Goals: Ranking 3rd on Liverpool’s all-time list.
- 2 Premier League Titles: (2019/20 and 2024/25).
- Champions League Winner: (2019).
- 4 Golden Boots: Tying Thierry Henry’s all-time record.
Professionalism Amid Transition
Even during a challenging season where he was briefly sidelined by Arne Slot, Salah has remained the team’s focal point. By announcing his exit now, he intends to provide the club and its supporters with total transparency as they prepare for a future without their modern talisman.
The Next Chapter
While speculation points toward a record-breaking move to the Saudi Pro League or a new venture in MLS, Salah remains focused on the present. He is determined to finish his final season at Anfield on a high note.
Final Words to the Fans
“Leaving is never easy,” Salah confessed, promising that he and his family will always consider Liverpool home. He closed his message with a final thank you to the supporters, reiterating that because of them, he “will never walk alone.”
The Club’s Tribute
Shortly after the announcement, Liverpool FC confirmed they will host a massive celebration of Salah’s legacy at Anfield following the season’s final home game to give the legend a proper send-off.
