Farewell to Liverpool: Salah’s Nine-Year Era Ends with a Premier League Legend
Salah's Liverpool era ends as he departs after nine memorable seasons.

Departure Marks a Nine-Year Liverpool Era

Mohamed Salah closes a nine-year chapter with Liverpool, leaving a legacy of trophies and moments that defined a generation.

On March 24, 2026, Salah announced his departure at the end of the season, a year before his contract ends, and without revealing his next destination.

A Record of Goals and a Storied Path

Arriving from Roma in 2017, he etched his name in gold at Anfield, becoming a central figure for the club.

This season has seen a dip in form and a clash with manager Arne Slot and the club's leadership.

Salah has scored 189 Premier League goals for Liverpool, plus two for Chelsea, making him the fourth all-time top scorer in the Premier League with 191 goals.

The official Premier League account on X celebrated Salah after the news, posting a top 10 of his best goals for Liverpool.

Among the highlights is his 2017-18 strike against Everton that earned the Puskás Award for the season.

Watch the goals and relive the moments, because Salah's career has long felt like a highlight reel on loop.

The article also mentions a poll asking fans whether Salah can lead Egypt to Africa Cup of Nations glory.

Punchlines to cap it off: If goals paid rent, Salah would fund Liverpool's next transfer window; and the ball will likely be just as confused as fans about where he will play next.
