Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah has committed his future to Liverpool after penning a new contract with the club.
Salah’s future was up in the air, but he has shown his loyalty to the Reds after penning a new deal that will keep him with the club beyond the 2024-25 season.
The 32-year-old has been a man in form, having scored 32 goals and registered 22 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions.
Since joining Liverpool from AS Roma, Salah has cemented his place as a club legend, scoring 243 goals and grabbing 111 assists in 394 appearances in all competitions.
The Egyptian international has won eight trophies, including the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, two EFL Cups, UEFA Super Cup and a FIFA Club World Cup.
“Of course I’m very excited. We have a great team now. Before also we had a great team,” Salah told his club’s official website.
“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.
“I would like to say to [the fans], I am very, very happy to be here. I signed here because I believe we can win a lot of big trophies together.
“Keep supporting us and we’ll give it our best, and hopefully in the future we’re going to win more trophies.”
Liverpool released the following statement on the matter, which reads:
