Despite an erratic season for the Reds, Salah insists he is at peace and physically ready for his next challenge. Yankee Scores has the full breakdown of this era-defining announcement.

Liverpool forward Mohammed Salah says he has peace with his decision to exit Liverpool at the end of the season.

The Decision

After a mutual agreement with Liverpool, Salah will be ending a trophy-laden nine years. The Egyptian is cutting short his 2-year contract after a very erratic current season, which has included inconsistent performances and a lack of team success compared to previous years.

“I feel to go through the season this is the right thing to do now, and I have peace with it,” he said in an interview with former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard on TNT Sports.

“The season was tough for all of us … I don’t want to say much.

“I’m glad that I’m leaving now through a big door as that was something you mentioned to me — ‘leave on your own terms’ — and I still remember those words,” he added.

Physical Fitness

However, he said his football is far from over as he’s still physically strong to play competitive football.

“Honestly I feel I have a lot to give: physically I feel very good, I played many games this season.

Future Prospects

“I didn’t decide yet what I’m going to do, to be fair, I have a lot of options which are good options.”

“Every player had the same goal, no playing around, no heroes, everybody knows what they do and if you don’t do it right the other one is going to really go for you to do it right,” said Salah of a squad which won the Champions League and Premier League in back-to-back seasons at the height of their power.

“We had that so much in the last 10 years, and I really hope from my heart that will not change because now we change a lot of players and the bond of the team is changing so I really hope the guys hold it together and have that for the future.”
