Mohamed Salah has officially said farewell to the Liverpool supporters at Anfield, closing the chapter on one of the most successful personal eras in the club’s modern history. The Egyptian forward shared an emotional message following his final outing for the Reds, describing the evening as the most difficult of his professional career.

A touching farewell at Anfield

The final whistle in the match against Brentford did more than end the Premier League season — it symbolised the conclusion of a remarkable era at Liverpool. Salah, who has spearheaded the team’s attack for nearly ten years, has now bid an emotional goodbye to the club where he evolved from a talented winger into a global superstar.

Using his official social media platform to connect with millions of fans, Salah posted a photograph of himself at Anfield, waving to the crowd one final time. Alongside the image, he wrote a deeply moving caption that captured the gravity of the moment: “The longest night of my life.. Thank you for everything again.”

The end of a nine-year golden spell

Salah’s exit marks the conclusion of an extraordinary nine-year journey on Merseyside, during which he cemented his place among the most prolific players ever to don the famous red shirt.

Since joining from AS Roma in the summer of 2017 for around £34 million ($46m), the Egypt international has been instrumental in Liverpool’s resurgence at both domestic and European levels.

He leaves Anfield with an enviable collection of honours, having captured multiple domestic and international titles. Appropriately, his final major contribution was helping Liverpool secure the Premier League trophy during the 2024-2025 season.

A record-breaking legacy

Beyond the trophies, Salah’s legacy is defined by his extraordinary numbers and unrelenting consistency in front of goal.

Nicknamed the “Egyptian King,” Salah shattered numerous records during his spell at Liverpool. With 191 goals to his name, he became the club’s all-time top scorer in the Premier League and was a perennial contender for the Golden Boot.

His final appearance at Anfield was met with overwhelming emotion from fans, who paid tribute to their icon with heartfelt applause and chants. The farewell encapsulated his stature as a modern legend, as supporters ensured he felt their gratitude before stepping into the next phase of his career.

Uncertainty over Salah’s next destination

Though his time in England’s North West has drawn to a close, the 33-year-old has yet to confirm his next move. Speculation continues regarding a possible switch to the Saudi Pro League, where he has long been a transfer target, or a move to Major League Soccer in the United States.

Interest from European clubs also remains strong, with several elite teams reportedly eager to sign him as a free agent. For now, Salah remains silent about his next step, choosing instead to reflect on the emotional conclusion to his remarkable Liverpool journey.

He is also expected to return to Egypt soon to begin preparations with the national team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
