\"Revealed:<\/p>\n

Salah has agreed to terminate his contract a year early <\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Nine years, and 255 goals, after his Anfield arrival, Mohamed Salah is set to finally leave Liverpool, as announced in an emotional statement on Tuesday evening. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Somewhat surprisingly, albeit considering a mid-season fallout with Arne Slot, the Egyptian forward has agreed to end his contract \u2014 worth \u00a3400,000 per week in wages \u2014 a full year early, allowing Salah to join a new club as a free agent in the summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Although now past his prime as a player, Mohamed Salah is still one of the biggest names in global football, and could easily have demanded a considerable transfer fee.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Why then, did his club agree to eventually allow the player, arguably one their biggest assets, to depart for free?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

A new behind-the-scenes report from the Telegraph, has now broken down exactly why Liverpool’s upper management agreed to end Salah’s Liverpool spell early.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

According to the report: “When it came to the final negotiations on the\u00a0departure of Mohamed Salah\u00a0from Liverpool, the consensus from the club\u2019s owner, Fenway Sports Group, was that holding out for a fee would do more damage to an already difficult situation.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The report details that both Liverpool and Salah have been looking for an exit route for some time, since Salah openly criticised Slot back in December.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

When a serious transfer offer never materialised in January, an amicable summer departure arrived as the best option for all involved. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

With a flurry of Saudi Arabian clubs, and MLS outfit Inter Miami, already said to be interested, it now remains to be seen where the Liverpool forward finally ends up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
