Mohamed Salah will leave Liverpool at the end of the 2025–26 season, bringing an end to his remarkable nine-year spell at Anfield.
The club confirmed that an agreement has been reached with the Egypt international to depart this summer despite his current contract running until 2027.

Salah will leave as one of the most successful and influential players in Liverpool’s modern history.
Since arriving from AS Roma in 2017, the forward has played a central role in one of the most successful periods the club has enjoyed in recent decades.
During his time on Merseyside, Salah has helped Liverpool win eight major trophies.
Those honours include two Premier League titles and the UEFA Champions League in 2019.
He will depart as the third-highest goalscorer in Liverpool’s history.
Salah has scored 255 goals in 435 appearances for the club.
Only Liverpool legends Ian Rush and Roger Hunt have scored more goals for the club.

The Egyptian also played a decisive role in last season’s Premier League title win under head coach Arne Slot.
Salah finished that campaign as both the league’s leading scorer and its most productive creator.
He registered 29 goals and 18 assists during Liverpool’s title-winning season.
However, this campaign has proved more challenging for the 33-year-old.
Salah has scored five goals and provided six assists in 22 league appearances this season.
Across all competitions, he has reached double figures with 10 goals.
Earlier in the season, his future became uncertain following comments made after he was left on the bench during a 3-3 draw with Leeds United.

Salah suggested he felt “thrown under the bus” and hinted at tension within the club.
He was later left out of Liverpool’s squad for a Champions League match against Inter Milan.
That decision was reportedly taken by sporting director Richard Hughes in consultation with the club hierarchy.
Despite those moments of uncertainty, Salah returned to the starting line-up following the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.
He has since started 13 matches for Liverpool since late January.
Liverpool stated that Salah remains focused on finishing the current campaign strongly before his departure.
The club added that tributes to his achievements will follow later in the year when he bids farewell to Anfield.

His departure will close one of the most productive chapters in Liverpool’s history and mark the end of an era for the club and its supporters.
