Mohamed Salah to finish with 250 goals

Mohamed Salah will end his Liverpool career on Sunday, May 24, when Liverpool host Brentford at Anfield in the Premier League. Liverpool announced on March 24 that Salah would leave at the end of the 2025-26 season, closing what the club described as a “remarkable nine-year chapter” at Anfield. The Egyptian forward goes into the final weekend with 255 goals for Liverpool in all competitions, according to the club, and with farewell mosaics planned inside the stadium. Brentford’s official match hub lists the game for May 24 at Anfield. ### When did Liverpool confirm Salah was leaving? Liverpool confirmed on March 24 that Salah would leave at the end of the 2025-26 season. The club said he had “reached an agreement” that would see him finish his Liverpool career after the campaign. Salah also issued a message to supporters that day through the club’s website. “You gave me the best time of my life,” he said, adding: “This club will always be my home to me and to my family.” ### Is this really the end of a decade at Liverpool? The timeline is just short of a full 10 seasons. Liverpool’s player profile says Salah arrived in the summer of 2017, and the club’s March statement said he would depart at the end of his ninth campaign as a Red. That still places him among the defining players of Liverpool’s recent era. Liverpool’s official profile describes him as “one of the world's best and most prolific forwards” since his arrival from Roma in 2017. ### Where does the 250-goal figure come from? Liverpool’s own numbers piece, published after his departure was announced, listed Salah on 255 goals in all competitions. The club said that total ranked third in Liverpool history, behind Ian Rush’s 346 and Roger Hunt’s 285. The same club tally said Salah had 189 Premier League goals and 92 assists for Liverpool at that point, giving him 281 goal contributions in the competition for the club. Liverpool said that was the most any player had recorded for one club in Premier League history. ### What did Salah win at Liverpool? Liverpool’s official profile describes Salah as a “serial winner” with the club. During his time at Anfield, he was part of Liverpool sides that won the Premier League and the Champions League, along with domestic and international trophies. His individual record was also extensive. Liverpool said when he signed a contract extension in April 2025 that he had won the Premier League Golden Boot three times, the PFA Players’ Player of the Year twice and the Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year award twice. ### Why are fans talking about a farewell at Anfield? Liverpool said on May 18 that mosaics would be displayed at Anfield on Sunday in celebration of the departing Salah and Andy Robertson. The club framed the display as part of the send-off for two players leaving this summer. The Premier League’s official site has also packaged video tributes around his departure, including clips labeled “Salah to leave” and “Watch: Liverpool bid farewell to legend Salah.” Those posts reflect how the league and club are marking his final week. ### What happens next on Sunday? Brentford’s official website lists Liverpool v Brentford at Anfield on Sunday, May 24, as the final fixture in Salah’s Liverpool career. Liverpool has already said the fuller celebration of his legacy will follow when he “bids farewell to Anfield,” and the club’s planned mosaics are set for that match.
