Salah Signs New Three-year Liverpool Contract
Mohamed Salah has signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool, ending speculation that he could depart on a free transfer next summer.
Along with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, who has since gone to Bayern Munich, Salah was the third member of Jurgen Klopp’s front line who was heading into the final 12 months of his deal but is now contracted to remain at Anfield until 2025.
A reported salary of around £350,000 a week would put him far ahead of other top earners at the club, on a par with the Premier League’s top talent at Manchester City and Manchester United.
The Reds confirmed he had put pen to paper on an extension on Friday afternoon, with Salah stating upon signing the deal his intention to fight for more silverware at Anfield.
He said; “I feel great and [I am] excited to win trophies with the club. It’s a happy day for everyone.
“It takes a little bit of time, I think, to renew, but now everything is done so we just need to focus on what’s next.”
