Reflections and Emotional Farewell
In a heartfelt statement shared with his supporters, Salah described Liverpool as much more than a football club, emphasising the deep connection he has formed with the city and its people. “Unfortunately, the day has come,” Salah began with a statement on social media.
“This is the first part of my farewell. I will be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.
“I never imagined how deeply this club, this city and the people would become part of my life. Liverpool is not just a football club. It is a passion, a history, a spirit. I can’t explain in words.
“We won the most important trophies and we fought together through the hardest time in my life. I want to thank everyone who has been part of this club throughout my time here.”
“I don’t have enough words. The support you showed me through the best times of my career, and you stood by me in my toughest times. It is something I will never forget.
“Leaving is never easy. I will always be one of you and this club will always be home to me and to my family. Thank you for everything. Because of all of you, I will never walk alone.”
Seasonal Struggles and Club Response
Although Salah signed a contract extension until 2027 in April last year, the current campaign has presented challenges, with the forward registering five goals and six assists in 22 Premier League appearances under Arne Slot as Liverpool compete for a Champions League spot for next season.
Having made his intentions clear, Liverpool responded by acknowledging the significance of Salah’s contributions, commending his time at the club as “remarkable”. The club also stated that Salah had chosen to communicate his decision himself, highlighting his appreciation for the club’s supporters by opting for transparency regarding his future plans.
The club said: “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.”
