Salah signs new two year deal to extend Liverpool stay to 2027
The new deal, coupled with Virgil Van Dijk closing in on a new contract to stay at the club, will soften the blow of losing Trent Alexander Arnold to Real Madrid at the end of the season.
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah, who is enjoying another stellar campaign for the Reds, has committed his future by putting pen to paper on a new two-year deal.
The new deal, coupled with Virgil Van Dijk closing in on a new contract to stay at the club, will soften the blow of losing Trent Alexander Arnold to Real Madrid at the end of the season.
So far in the 2024/25 season, Salah has scored 32 goals in just 45 appearances in all competitions – 27 of which have come in the Premier League, making him the division’s leading marksman.
These strikes have been supplemented by 22 assists for his teammates.
The news means Salah will extend an eight-year stay at Anfield into the future and continue to help Arne Slot’s team challenge for the game’s biggest honours.
"Of course, I’m very excited. We have a great team now. Before also we had a great team. But I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football," he told LFC.com.
“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," he enthused.
Salah has cemented himself as a Liverpool legend since his transfer from AS Roma in the summer of 2017 with 243 goals in 394 appearances to date, making him the club's third highest ever scorer.
During his time at Anfield, Salah has lifted seven major honours, winning the Premier League and Champions League, as well as the FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and two League Cups.
In addition, he has won the Premier League Golden Boot on three occasions, been named the PFA Players’ Player of the Year twice, and taken home two FWA Footballer of the Year awards.
