Mohamed Salah has decided to bring his time at Liverpool to an end.
Part of one of the most exciting trios I've ever seen at Liverpool and a certified club legend, it will be sad to see him go.
Salah joined from AS Roma, my second team, and came at a more-than-reasonable price even at that time when he still had lots to prove. Within a year he'd begun staking his claim as an all-time great, not just at Liverpool, but in the Premier League. Over subsequent seasons, we'd see him become one of the best on the biggest of stages.
Had he left after a title-winning season, we'd all have been up in arms at the thought of a title defence without him, but it feels like age is catching up with him and it's a good decision for everyone to call time on the relationship a year later. In hindsight, it was a year too many.
For more on Mohamed Salah's background and his influence on Liverpool Football Club, I highly recommend Chasing Sala by Simon Hughes.
I'm pleased he'll get a goodbye, but that shouldn't be the end goal. There are still two opportunities for claim a trophy this season and I hope we do go all out to win them.
From a personal point of view, I always cherish the opportunity to see the team I love play and especially to know that I've seen some greats live in the flesh. Lucky enough to have seen Salah play twice and score each time.
Whatever you do next, Mo. Good luck and thanks for all you have done for both AS Roma and Liverpool FC.
