Egyptian captain Mohamed Salah has suggested he will remain at Liverpool next season following the appointment of Arne Slot as the club’s new manager. Liverpool previously rejected a £150 million offer from Al-Ittihad for the 31-year-old last September, and he has been linked again with a move to Saudi Arabia.

Salah scored 25 goals in 44 games across all competitions this season, with the League Cup being the only trophy won in Jurgen Klopp’s final campaign as manager. On social media, Salah affirmed his commitment to striving for more silverware next season, stating, “We know that trophies are what count and we will do everything possible to make that happen next season. Our fans deserve it and we will fight like hell.”

With one year remaining on his contract, Salah’s future was further speculated upon after Al-Ittihad’s bid was declined, with Saudi Pro League’s director of football Michael Emenalo suggesting the door remains open for the Egyptian star. Notable players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Karim Benzema, and Riyad Mahrez have moved to Saudi Arabia in the past 18 months.

Salah also expressed gratitude towards Klopp, who led Liverpool to the Champions League and Club World Cup in 2019 and the Premier League title in 2019-20, posting, “It was great sharing all those trophies and experiences with you over the past seven years. I wish you the best of luck for the future and hope we meet again.”

Despite a public disagreement with Klopp during a match against West Ham, which Klopp later said was “completely resolved,” Salah’s 18 league goals this season were his lowest since joining Liverpool from Roma in 2017. The team finished third in the Premier League, nine points behind champions Manchester City.
