Liverpool dismiss Mohamed Salah speculation despite team-mate's hint over possible Anfield stay

The Reds announced in March that Salah would leave at the end of the season in order to give Liverpool supporters an opportunity to say goodbye properly to a club legend.

Part of the statement at the time read: "Mohamed Salah is to bring the curtain down on his illustrious career with Liverpool FC at the end of the 2025-26 season.

"The forward has reached an agreement with the Reds that will see him close a remarkable nine-year chapter at Anfield.

"Salah expressed his wish to make this announcement to the supporters at the earliest possible opportunity to provide transparency about his future due to his respect and gratitude for them."

Salah's international team-mate, Ahmed El-Shenawy, said earlier this week that the Egpytian "could still stay" after Liverpool with still no update on the forward's future.

El-Shenawy told ON Time Sports: "The prospect of leaving  Liverpool has affected Mo psychologically, but the situation might change and he could still stay with the team,

"He even told me that he doesn't know anything about his future yet."

Following the comments, Salah's agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, posted on X: "Mohamed is doing perfectly fine and neither he nor I prefer to discuss sensitive future plans with people not involved in them.

"Both he and I are very private about these things.

"Yes, people may ask and they may get a standard polite response but that's about it."

After new Fenerbahce president Aziz Yildrim claimed he could bring Salah to the Turkish side if he won the election campaign, Ertan Torunogullari, the director of football under previous president Sadettin Saran, insists that the Liverpool forward is "very keen" on joining the Super Lig club.

Torunogullari said: "He (Salah) was very keen on coming to Türkiye.

"The meetings he had with us were extremely positive. We had established common ground with him on many issues, including his salary.

"If the new administration makes such a request, I believe Salah will wear the Fenerbahce jersey. We would gladly work with the new administration on negotiations."
