Mohamed Salah is set to leave Liverpool in the summer of 2026, according to recent reports from FootballTransfers. This information suggests that the Egyptian forward, who extended his contract with Liverpool until 2027 earlier in 2025, may not complete the full duration of this deal before departing the club.
Salah had previously signed a two-year contract extension with Liverpool in April 2025, keeping him at Anfield through to the end of the 2026/27 season. His new deal came after months of speculation and negotiation, during which Liverpool rejected a significant offer from Saudi club Al-Ittihad and there were discussions about the length and terms of the contract. Ultimately, a compromise was reached, with Salah committing to Liverpool for two more years.
Despite earlier indications from Salah that he might leave Liverpool after the 2024/25 season, the extension highlighted his excitement about Liverpool's competitive prospects under manager Arne Slot and his desire to continue enjoying his football at the club where he has had the most successful years of his career. Salah has been a key player for Liverpool, scoring 243 goals in 393 appearances and winning major trophies including the Premier League and the Champions League.
However, the recent update points to a likely departure in 2026, which might align with changes in Liverpool’s squad planning or Salah’s personal ambitions, given he will be approaching 34 years old at that time. No further specific details on the destination or terms of his exit have been disclosed.
