Mohamed Salah has put an end to all speculation surrounding his future by signing a new contract with Liverpool, the club has confirmed. The Egyptian superstar’s extension will keep him at Anfield until 2027, securing his presence for another three years.
The news comes as a significant boost for Liverpool, who are currently on course to secure their 20th top-flight title. Salah, a pivotal figure in the team’s success, expressed his excitement about the new deal.
“Of course, I’m very excited,” Salah told Liverpool’s official website. “We have a great team now. Before also we had a great team. But I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football. It’s great, I had my best years here. I played eight years, hopefully it’s going to be 10. Enjoying my life here, enjoying my football. I had the best years in my career.”
Salah, who joined Liverpool from Roma in 2017, has been instrumental in their recent successes. His impressive record of 27 goals and 17 assists in the Premier League this season has contributed significantly to the Reds’ 11-point lead at the top of the table. Overall, he has amassed a staggering 243 goals and 109 assists in 393 appearances for Liverpool.
During his time at Anfield, Salah has won the Premier League title, the Champions League, the FA Cup, the League Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup.
The extension of Salah’s contract addresses one of the key concerns for Liverpool, as he was among three prominent players whose contracts were set to expire this summer. While captain Virgil van Dijk has indicated “progress” in his contract negotiations, Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future remains uncertain, with Real Madrid reportedly showing strong interest.
Salah’s commitment to Liverpool until 2027 solidifies his legacy at the club and provides a significant morale boost as they pursue further success.
