Mohamed Salah has opened up about the emotional bond he shares with Liverpool, calling his connection with the club "incredible" as he prepares to bid farewell after nine unforgettable seasons.
The Egyptian superstar, who will leave Anfield at the end of the current campaign, has etched his name into Liverpool lore with 257 goals across all competitions—the third-highest tally in the club's storied history. His trophy cabinet includes two Premier League titles and a Champions League crown, cementing his legacy as one of the modern greats.
Despite a recent injury scare that threatened to cut short his farewell tour, Salah has reassured fans he'll be back before the season finale. Speaking to Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard in an interview with TNT Sports, the 33-year-old confirmed he expects to return to action ahead of the final home match against Brentford on May 24th.
"Yeah, for sure. The injury is fine. Definitely. I probably will be [back] before that, probably," Salah said with characteristic confidence.
When Gerrard pressed him on his relationship with the Liverpool faithful, Salah's response was heartfelt. "Incredible. I never imagined I would be close to somebody like this. I feel so emotional when I speak about them or about the city. The connection between us is incredible."
Reflecting on what made that bond so special, Salah added: "If you give it all on the field, they will love you anyway. They know that I gave it all, I've been professional all my career and tried to encourage the guys: 'Leave it all on the field and the fans will appreciate it.'"
For fans who've watched Salah's rise from a promising winger to a club icon, his words capture the essence of a player who gave everything to the red shirt. As the curtain falls on this chapter, his legacy—and that connection—will endure long after the final whistle.
