End of an era: Salah’s heartfelt goodbye as he leaves Liverpool after nine years of glory, goals and unforgettable nights Mohamed Salah has thanked Liverpool for the 'best time of his life' after announcing he will leave the club at the end of the season. Salah will bring an end to his nine-year spell at Anfield in the summer after a mutual agreement was made between Liverpool and the Egyptian. It concludes a record-breaking spell at Liverpool for Salah, who has been perhaps the definitive figure of the club's modern success.
The 33-year-old's list of achievements include a record three PFA Player of the Year awards and four Premier League Golden Boots, with team honours won including Premier League titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and two League Cups, as well as an FA Community Shield. Salah's 255 goals for Liverpool to date makes him the third-highest goalscorer in club history. He's also the highest-scoring foreign footballer in Premier League history.
In an emotional message posted via his social media channels, Salah announced the decision to leave Liverpool and said he will never forget the impact the club has had on him "Hello everyone, unfortunately the day has come. This is the first part of my farewell. I will be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.
"I wanted to start by saying that I never imagined how deeply this club, this city, these people would become part of my life. "Liverpool is not just a football club, it's a passion, it's a history, it's a spirit. I can't explain in words to anyone not part of this club.
"We celebrated victory, we won the most important trophies and we fought together through the hardest time in our life. "I want to thank everyone who was part of this club throughout my time here, especially the teammates past and present. "And to the fans, I don't have enough words.
