Mohamed Salah has ended his contact stand off with Liverpool and committed his future by signing the biggest deal in the club’s history.

Salah had entered the final 12 months of his current terms, which were signed in July 2018, but after months of negotiations Liverpool and Salah have come to an agreement that will see him remain at Anfield until June 2025 on terms estimated to be close to £400,000 per week.

It is a huge moment for both Jurgen Klopp and Salah, as it removes all speculation about what the 30-year-old will do next.

There had been indications that he would run his contract down and move for free next summer but all such chatter is now at an end.

It has always been Salah’s preferred wish to stay on Merseyside, where he has become an icon since joining from AS Roma in 2017.

He has been one of the best best buys the club has ever made and is in the all-time top 10 scorers in Liverpool’s history.

Julian Ward, Liverpool’s Sporting Director, flew out with a delegation to Mykonos, where the Egyptian has been on holiday, to get the paperwork signed and the business reflects Salah’s position as one of the current best players in the world.
