Liverpool players have paid tribute to Mohamed Salah following his announcement that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season.
Salah’s deal was originally set to run until the summer of 2027, and by terminating it early, the forward reportedly walked away from his £400,000-a-week wages for the final year.
Liverpool rejected a £150m bid for Salah from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad in 2023.
Liverpool Players React to Mohamed Salah Exit Following Salah’s announcement, a number of former and current Liverpool players reacted to the Egyptian forward’s impending exit this summer.
Andy Robertson posted a lengthy tribute to his 33-year-old teammate on Instagram. He said: “Mohamed, Thank you. 9 of the best years of our lives with amazing memories on and off the pitch.
Watching you become the best at what you do and become one of the best to ever have worn the Liverpool shirt has been a joy to watch and be part of.
“Your mentality is second to none and a lot of people could take note. You have pushed yourself every single day and always demanded more from yourself and others.
A pleasure sharing the pitch with you for so long but even more so being able to call you a friend. “You deserve a send off that reflects your status at LFC – the greatest.
Second to none.” Cody Gakpo has also issued a message of support for Salah, saying: “Grateful to have shared the pitch with you @mosalah.
Thank you for everything – not just for what you did on the pitch, but for the example you set every single day.
A great player and a true legend, I’ve got nothing but respect for you.
Wishing you only the best for what’s next.” Under Salah’s post, Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk commented with a red love heart and clapping emoji, while Ibrahima Konate wrote, “The King”. Former and current Liverpool players Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz, Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch, Joe Gomez, Harvey Elliott, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Darwin Nunez also showed their support for Salah by leaving emojis below his announcement, while Steven Gerrard added a red love heart emoji of his own.
Salah’s Agent Issues Statement Amid emerging speculation over Salah’s potential next destination, his agent Ramy Abbas Issa took to X (formerly Twitter) to address the rumours.
Shortly after Salah’s announcement, Abbas Issa confirmed that there is not yet a plan in place for where the Liverpool star will play next, saying ‘no one knows’ about the Egyptian’s future.
Salah helped Liverpool to their second-ever Premier League title last season, scoring 29 goals and providing 18 assists in a victorious campaign.
The Egyptian forward has struggled to replicate his best form in a difficult 2025/26 campaign for the Merseysiders, netting just five times in 22 league outings so far.
