‘I think we have a chance’ - Mo Salah reveals reason behind making a U-turn on his future at Liverpool

Salah's future has been a major talking point this season, as his previous contract was due to expire in the summer. 

However, he had decided to remain at the club after Liverpool announced that he had signed a two-year contract extension.

The forward remains essential to Arne Slot's side as they approach the Premier League title, having secured eight trophies at Anfield.

Salah was quick to share his excitement and the motivation for choosing to sign a new deal after the news was officially announced.

Speaking on Liverpool's official website, he said, “Of course I'm very excited. We have a great team now. 

“Before also we had a great team. But I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football.”

The club announced on Friday that the player had signed a new contract worth £350,000 per week, lasting until 2027.

Fenway Sports Group, the owners of Liverpool, broke their usual policy of not offering new contracts to players over 30 by giving him a new deal.

Since joining Liverpool from Roma in 2017, the Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah has scored an impressive 243 goals in 394 games, solidifying his status as one of the club's all-time greats.
