It's finally official. Mohamed Salah on Tuesday announced that he would leave Liverpool at the end of the ongoing season. The forward will leave the club as one of Liverpool's greatest players and the club's third-highest goal scorer. During his nine-year long stay at Anfield, Salah became a two-time Premier League champion, a Champions League winner and clinched several other team and individual titles.
The Egyptian posted a video across his social media across declaring his imminent departure.
"Unfortunately the day has come. This is the first part of my farewell," Salah said. "I will be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.
"I never imagined how deeply this club, this city, these people, would become part of my life," the 33-year-old added.
"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."
