Mohamed Salah has officially committed his future to Liverpool FC, signing a new contract that runs until 2027. The Egyptian superstar, now 32, continues to make headlines not just for his incredible performances but also for his loyalty to the club that helped him become a global icon. In an era where footballers are frequently swayed by lucrative deals from abroad, Salah’s choice to stay at Anfield sends a strong message.
This blockbuster news comes during one of Salah’s most successful seasons, where he’s already racked up 32 goals and 22 assists across competitions. His new deal not only cements his legacy as a Liverpool legend but also reassures fans and management alike of the club’s ambitions for the future.
Background: Salah’s Journey to Liverpool
Salah joined Liverpool from AS Roma in the summer of 2017, and it didn’t take long for him to make an impact. In his first season alone, he broke the record for most goals in a Premier League season (32 goals in 38 games). Since then, he has been the heartbeat of the club’s attack, delivering in key moments and helping Liverpool to Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, and Club World Cup triumphs.
Before Liverpool, Salah had spells at Basel, Chelsea, Fiorentina (on loan), and Roma. It was at Roma where he truly blossomed, prompting Jurgen Klopp to make the move to bring him back to England. And what a decision that turned out to be.
The Details of the New Contract
Salah’s new contract is reportedly worth a staggering £400,000 per week, making him one of the highest-paid players in Premier League history. The deal extends until the summer of 2027, ensuring he remains at Anfield well into his mid-30s.
There are also performance-related bonuses and potential ambassadorial clauses in the deal, highlighting Liverpool’s commitment to not just retain Salah as a player, but as a lifelong brand ambassador for the club.
This contract also signals a new chapter for Liverpool as they continue to transition into a post-Klopp era under the leadership of Arne Slot.
Salah’s Record-Breaking Performances
Since his arrival, Salah has scored 243 goals in 394 appearances, making him the third-highest scorer in Liverpool’s history—only behind Ian Rush and Roger Hunt. He’s also the fastest Liverpool player to reach 100, 150, and 200 goals in all competitions.
His accolades include:
- 3× Premier League Golden Boots
- PFA Player of the Year
- Liverpool Player of the Season (multiple times)
- Numerous goal of the month awards and Champions League Team of the Season selections
Beyond statistics, Salah has become a symbol of consistency, work ethic, and professionalism—attributes that have made him a role model on and off the pitch.
Why This Deal Matters for Liverpool
In a summer of potential change, keeping Salah is Liverpool’s most important “signing.” With manager Jurgen Klopp departing and a new system on the horizon, stability is crucial—and Salah provides just that.
His leadership, experience, and connection with fans make him more than just a footballer. He’s an icon, a role model, and a beacon for younger players looking to rise through the ranks. Retaining him ensures continuity, ambition, and quality.
