Mohamed Salah makes good on social media post as Liverpool promise fulfilled Less than a year on from a very public promise to Liverpool supporters, Mohamed Salah stands on cusp of fulfilling it Mohamed Salah applauds the Liverpool faithful after they they beat Wolves 2-0 at Anfield in Jurgen Klopp's final game in charge (Image: PAUL ELLIS/AFP via Getty Images ) The final whistle of the 23/24 Premier League season was likely still ringing in the ears of Mohamed Salah when he felt compelled to make his private thoughts public. A disappointing end to the campaign had left him cutting a frustrated figure and it didn't take long before he vowed that there would be no repeat. A hamstring injury, picked up at the Africa Cup of Nations on Egypt duty in January, had diluted his impact in the second half of the term. Dreams of ending Jurgen Klopp's time in charge as champions of England started to disintegrate in the spring. ‌ It had been an unhappy end to the Klopp era for Salah and his claim that "there will be fire if I speak today", as he walked past reporters following a touchline disagreement with his manager at West Ham United, was result of the No.11 generally being miffed at his status as substitute as he struggled to get up to 100% after that hamstring complaint.

"We know that trophies are what count and we will do everything possible to make that happen next season." he posted online. "Our fans deserve it and we will fight like hell." ‌ It was a statement of intent that has been viewed nearly 10m times and had over 100k likes on X alone. Nearly a year on from that May 20 statement and Salah stands on the cusp of fulfilling his public promise. The top scorer of Liverpool's Premier League years has made no secret of his desire to lift the trophy for a second time this season, and some summer soul-searching before he reported for duty under Arne Slot was said to have been where he decided that the domestic honour would supersede his desire for a second Champions League trophy at Anfield this time out. At the time, Salah had no idea if he would be staying on Merseyside beyond the expiration of his current terms but rather than allow the uncertainty to bleed into his performances on the pitch, he made sure he was simple undeniable instead. ‌ As the man himself revealed to Sky Sports in January: "The first thing that was on the list was to win the Premier League with Liverpool. In my interviews over the last seven or eight years, I always say [I want to win the] Champions League. But this is the first time I'm saying I really want to win the Premier League with Liverpool. "I have no idea. It's probably because we didn't celebrate the one we won in the way we wanted and also, coming back here too, it's my last year in the club so you want to do something special for the city." From day one of the summer schedule, Salah has been determined to carry out his promise to the supporters. ‌ From winning the gruelling Six-Minute Race Test (6MRT) after its introduction to the pre-season training drills at the AXA Centre, through to scoring 27 Premier League goals and 18 assists, Liverpool's No.11 has meant business from the off. Even before that July return to the Kirkby base, in fact, Salah had taken the decision to steer clear of representing Egypt at the Paris Olympics in favour of a full and uninterrupted summer period under his new boss in Slot. As he aims to add to his 55 goal involvements over the next five games that will surely include the clinching of league title No.20 at Anfield, it was a call that has paid handsome dividends. ‌ "When I found out I wanted to tell our secrets between us," Dominik Szoboszlai explained to Sky Sports. "But yeah, I am really happy he has extended his contract and he is going to stay here [for] two more years. I am happy to play alongside him." "I think you don't have to talk about [how good he is]. He shows this a lot on the pitch. Also in the Premier League, Champions League, cups - it doesn't matter which games we play, he is 100% there and it happens maybe you have a period where you don't score like he has now but he has set the record again with most goals and assists in one seasons, so the numbers tell us everything." Signed up for the next stage of Slot's Anfield evolution, Salah may find himself making a similar pledge to supporters once more at the end of this season.
