Liverpool's Salah to end glittering Anfield career at end of season

March 24 : Mohamed Salah, one of Liverpool's greatest-ever players and the driving force behind the club's modern era of success, will leave Anfield at the end of the season.

The Egyptian forward, whose goals, durability and iconic moments helped deliver two Premier Leagues, the Champions League and a host of other major trophies, confirmed his departure in an emotional video on his social media accounts on Tuesday.

"Unfortunately the day has come. This is the first part of my farewell," Salah said. "I will be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.

"I never imagined how deeply this club, this city, these people, would become part of my life," the 33-year-old added.

"Liverpool is not just a football club, it's a passion, it's a history, it's a spirit. I can't explain in words to anyone not part of this club. We celebrated victory, we won the most important trophies, and we fought together through the hardest time in our life."

Signed from AS Roma in 2017, Salah established himself as one of the best players in the club's history, helping Liverpool to two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and two League Cups, as well as a Community Shield.

THIRD-HIGHEST GOALSCORER

He has scored 255 goals in 435 appearances, making him the club's all-time third-highest goalscorer, while he has won the Premier League Golden Boot on four occasions.

"Salah expressed his wish to make this announcement to the supporters at the earliest possible opportunity to provide transparency about his future due to his respect and gratitude for them," the club said in a statement.

Salah came into this season on the back of a 2024/25 campaign that was widely regarded as one of the finest individual seasons
