Liverpool announces new two-year contract for Mohamed Salah

Liverpool has finally confirmed that Mohamed Salah will continue with the English club until 2027. The Egyptian player, 32, would finish his contract in June, and it has been expected that he would not get a renewal, which frustrated fans because he was having one of his best seasons ever, and seemingly the player himself, who used to say that this was going to be his final year at Liverpool.

But that has changed this week, and the announcement has been made on Friday morning: Mo Salah has agreed on two more years. "I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football", said Salah, who arrived at Liverpool as a transfer from Roma in the summer of 2017, and has since won one Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, and two League Cups. He is also the third top scorer of all-time for the Reds.

Today is all about Salah, who has scored 32 goals in 45 appearances, but it is expected that Virgil van Dijk will also sign a similar new two year contract. Trent Alexander-Arnold will not follow, and plans to join Real Madrid continue unchanged.
