Mohamed Salah is a global icon with an unquenchable thirst for rewriting the record books. Having ended speculation over his future by signing a new two-year contract at Liverpool, the Egypt international will set about cementing his legacy both at Anfield and further afield.

Mohamed Salah has signed a new Liverpool deal which could be worth up to £50 million over the next two years. After a breakthrough in negotiations with sporting director Richard Hughes, the attacker put pen to paper on the two-year extension, keeping him at Anfield until 2027.

A living legend in Liverpool, Mohamed Salah has two more years to burnish his astonishing legacy at Anfield after extending his contract on Friday. He did not arrive at Anfield as a superstar destined for greatness when Liverpool paid Roma £34 million ($44 million) for his services in 2017.
