Mohamed Salah, Liverpool’s Egyptian King, has revealed that the 2024/2025 season will likely be his last at Anfield. In a candid interview with Sky Sports, the 32-year-old forward declared his ambition to end his Liverpool journey on a high note by winning the Premier League—a trophy he cherishes deeply.
“This is the first time I’m saying it,” Salah admitted. “I really want to win the Premier League with Liverpool this season.”
A Legacy in the Making
Since joining Liverpool in 2017, Salah has become a cornerstone of the club’s success, breaking records and winning numerous accolades. He was instrumental in Liverpool’s Champions League triumph in 2019 and their historic Premier League win in 2020, which ended a 30-year drought. However, Salah confessed that the celebrations for their Premier League title were muted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We didn’t celebrate the one we won the way we wanted,” he said. “That’s why this one is so important. It’s not just for me—it’s for the city, the fans, and the legacy of this team.”
Salah also highlighted the importance of another trophy for Liverpool’s golden generation. “There’s still half of the team left from the Klopp era,” he noted, mentioning key players like Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Alisson Becker. “We need one more trophy to solidify this team’s greatness.”
Contract Talks Stalled
While Salah’s passion for Liverpool is evident, uncertainty clouds his future. He confirmed that his contract negotiations with the club are at an impasse.
“There is no progress. We are far away from any agreement,” Salah revealed. “It’s just six months left, and we’ll see what happens. But I don’t want to let that distract me. My focus is on having an unbelievable season.”
This statement has sparked speculation about Salah’s next destination, with fans and analysts alike wondering where the prolific forward might head next.
A Stellar Season Under New Management
Liverpool, under the guidance of new manager Arne Slot, is enjoying a resurgence. Currently six points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a game in hand, the Reds are primed for glory. Salah has been pivotal, leading the league with 17 goals and 13 assists—a testament to his enduring brilliance.
His determination to focus on football rather than contract drama was evident in his remarks: “When I feel distracted, I remind myself that I want to look back and say, ‘I had an unbelievable season.’ That’s my priority.”
The Final Push
Liverpool’s dominance this season has reignited hopes among fans, and Salah’s commitment to securing another Premier League title adds fuel to the fire. “It’s my last year here, and I want to do something special,” he declared.
Salah also expressed confidence in Liverpool’s ability to maintain their momentum. “The team is in great form. We’re united, and we’re hungry,” he said.
A Crucial Match Ahead
The Reds’ next test comes on Sunday against arch-rivals Manchester United at Anfield. While United has struggled this season, the fixture remains one of the most anticipated clashes in English football. Salah, who has a history of delivering in big games, is expected to play a central role.
An Era Nearing Its End
Salah’s potential departure marks the end of an era for Liverpool. Fans and pundits have already begun reflecting on his extraordinary contributions to the club. With over 200 goals in all competitions, multiple Golden Boots, and countless iconic moments, Salah’s legacy at Liverpool is secure.
However, as Salah himself pointed out, one final triumph could elevate that legacy to untouchable heights. “I want to leave something behind that everyone will remember,” he said.
What’s Next for Salah?
As Salah’s contract runs down, speculation about his future intensifies. Reports suggest that Saudi clubs, European giants, and even MLS teams are monitoring the situation closely. Regardless of where he lands, Salah’s name will remain synonymous with Liverpool’s golden era.
For now, though, the Egyptian King is focused on one thing: lifting the Premier League trophy in May and giving Liverpool fans one last unforgettable moment.
