Mohamed Salah: Why the Egyptian forward rejected a £500m move to Saudi Arabia to stay at Liverpool

Mohamed Salah has signed a new two-year contract with Liverpool, rejecting a reported £500m move to Saudi Arabia. The Egypt forward is staying at Anfield to pursue more trophies and personal goals.

Mohamed Salah is staying at Liverpool, bringing one of the season's key storylines to a conclusion. The 32-year-old has signed a new two-year contract with the club, which will keep him at Anfield until he is 34. Salah's decision to stay at Liverpool was not a straightforward one. The Egypt forward has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia throughout the season, with reports suggesting that he was in line to earn at least £500m. However, Salah has always maintained that he wanted to stay at Liverpool, and the club have been working hard to keep him. The new contract is a sign of the club's commitment to Salah, and it is a reward for his outstanding form this season. Salah has scored 32 goals in all competitions for Liverpool this season, and he is currently the Premier League's top scorer. He has also been a key figure in Liverpool's run to the Champions League final, where they will face Real Madrid on 28 May. Salah's new contract is a boost for Liverpool, who are looking to build on their success this season. The club are currently second in the Premier League, and they are still in the running for the Champions League and FA Cup. With Salah signed up for the next two years, Liverpool will be hoping to add more trophies to their collection.
