Mohamed Salah makes Liverpool pledge as he confesses team-mate’s exit was inspiration

Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah has pledged to forever cherish the incredible highs he’s experienced at Anfield, as speculation over his future swirls with his contract ticking down.

Currently in the final year of his deal with the Reds, Salah faces an uncertain path ahead and could begin negotiations with overseas clubs starting from January. The 32-year-old’s potential exit would draw the curtain on an illustrious chapter with the Premier League giants, but would no doubt be a massive blow to Arne Slot’s side.

His transfer from Roma in 2017 kicked off an impressive tally of 221 goals placing him amongst Liverpool’s all-time greats, fifth in the scoring ranks. Since then, the man nicknamed the Egyptian King has been instrumental in securing Liverpool’s maiden Premier League title, adding a Champions League, FA Cup and several other honours to the trophy cabinet.

Speaking to club media alongside colleagues Alisson Becker and Andy Robertson, Salah expressed heartfelt nostalgia: “The thing I appreciate the most is the time when I go every morning and I see the guys and share unbelievable moments, especially us three plus Virgil [van Dijk] and Trent [Alexander-Arnold], the senior group.”

Highlighting the transitory nature of football careers post Roberto Firmino’s departure, Salah emphasised valuing every moment with team-mates: “When Bobby [Firmino] left, for example, you realise everybody will leave one day so I don’t take that for granted. When I go [to the training ground], I always try to have a laugh with them and spend good time together. In my head, I always remember the good things we had together,” reports the Mirror.

Firmino, a long-time team-mate of Salah’s, bid farewell to Anfield in 2023 after an unforgettable eight-year stint. He transferred to Saudi Arabian team Al-Ahli on a free transfer and has since netted 14 goals in 49 appearances across all competitions. Salah himself has been dropping hints about his future at Liverpool. After scoring in the Reds’ recent triumph over Brighton, he hinted at a possible departure from Anfield.

In a social media post, Salah penned: “Top of the table is where this club belongs. Nothing less. All teams win matches but there’s only 1 champion in the end. That’s what we want. Thank you for your support last night. No matter what happens, I will never forget what scoring at Anfield feels like.”

Ramy Abbas Issa, Salah’s agent, also chimed in recently, although he didn’t confirm anything about the forward’s future. Earlier this week, he took to Twitter to declare that Salah was the “best player in the world”. Salah has had a stellar start to the new season, already boasting 10 goals and 10 assists in all competitions.
