EPL: Salah joins De Bruyne as second-highest earner after new Liverpool deal confirmed
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has committed his future to the club by signing a new contract reportedly worth £400,000 per week, making him the joint-second highest-paid player in the Premier League.
The Egyptian star had been heavily linked with a move away throughout the season, but Liverpool have now confirmed the renewal, believed to run until 2027.
The improved terms see Salah match Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne in weekly earnings, trailing only Erling Haaland, who tops the league at £500,000 per week.
Salah, 31, has scored 243 goals for Liverpool since joining from AS Roma in 2017, including 32 this season alone.
He has won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and multiple other trophies wearing the Red shirt.
The new deal ends speculation over a potential exit and solidifies Salah’s position as the club’s highest-paid player.
Speaking after the announcement, Salah said: “Of course I’m very excited. We have a great team now… I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football.”
He added: “I had my best years here… I would like to say to the fans, I am very, very happy to be here. I signed here because I believe we can win a lot of big trophies together.”
