Mohamed Salah Signs Contract Extension with Liverpool Until 2028
The Egyptian King commits his future to Anfield in a deal that makes him the highest-paid player in club history.
Mohamed Salah has ended months of speculation by signing a new three-year contract with Liverpool, keeping him at Anfield until 2028 and making him the highest-paid player in the club's history.
The 32-year-old Egyptian forward had been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, but has instead chosen to continue his remarkable career on Merseyside. The new deal is reported to be worth approximately 400,000 pounds per week.
Salah spoke passionately about his decision: "Liverpool is my home. The fans have given me so much love and support since the day I arrived. I want to repay that by helping this club win more trophies and create more memories."
Manager Arne Slot was delighted with the news: "Mo is one of the best players in the world. His commitment to this club shows his character and ambition. He remains a crucial part of our plans for the future."
Since joining Liverpool from Roma in 2017, Salah has scored 217 goals in 356 appearances, winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and League Cup. He has been named Premier League Player of the Season twice.
Liverpool fans gathered outside Anfield to celebrate the announcement, with many expressing relief that their talisman would remain at the club during this pivotal period.
