Liverpool FC has officially announced that Mohamed Salah has signed a new deal, extending his stay at Anfield until June 2027. The news comes amid persistent interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia, but Salah has reaffirmed his commitment to the Merseyside club, choosing to continue his journey with the Reds. At 32 years old, the Egyptian forward remains a crucial part of Liverpool’s plans both on and off the pitch.
Since arriving from AS Roma in the summer of 2017, Salah has established himself as one of the most prolific players in Liverpool’s history. He has netted an astounding 243 goals and assisted 111 more across 394 appearances, making him the club’s third-highest goalscorer ever. His influence continues to grow as he sets new records and maintains his world-class level of performance season after season.
This campaign has been no different. Salah has once again proven indispensable, registering 32 goals and 22 assists in just 45 appearances across all competitions. He currently leads the Premier League scoring chart with 27 goals, underlining his dominance and consistency at the highest level. His contributions have been a major factor in Liverpool’s strong position in the league this season, as they sit comfortably at the top of the table, 11 points ahead with seven games remaining.
Under the terms of his renewed contract, Salah will continue to earn a base salary of £350,000 per week. However, when endorsements and other income are included, his total weekly earnings are expected to approach £1 million, placing him among the Premier League’s top earners. Despite the lucrative offers from abroad, Salah’s decision to stay highlights his loyalty and ambition with Liverpool.
New Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed his satisfaction with the deal, commending the club’s efforts in securing one of their most valuable players. Slot acknowledged the strategic importance of keeping Salah at Anfield and emphasized the significance of his leadership and experience within the squad. With Salah’s future settled, the club’s focus will now shift towards securing contract extensions for other key players, such as captain Virgil van Dijk.
Salah also released an emotional statement, saying, “Liverpool is home. I still have big dreams here, and I’m not finished yet.” His words echo the passion and drive that have defined his time with the club. As fans rejoice, the iconic chant of “The Egyptian King” is sure to echo louder than ever around Anfield, as Salah embarks on a new chapter in his legendary Liverpool career.
