Salah's Liverpool Future Uncertain After Injury in 2026

Salah may have played last Liverpool game due to injury

Injury Update Liverpool manager Arne Slot stated that the club will have to wait and see if forward Mohamed Salah has played his final game for the team after suffering a left hamstring injury during the win over Crystal Palace. Salah, who announced his departure from the club at the end of the season, was substituted in the 59th minute at Anfield after clutching his left leg. According to Slot, it is too early to determine the severity of the injury, saying "It's too early to say but we all know Mo and how hard it is for him to leave the pitch." The manager added, "For Mo to leave the pitch, it shows you something but we have to wait and see how bad it is." ## Career Highlights Salah was able to walk off the field unaided but took his time, turning to applaud the Anfield crowd. Since joining Liverpool in 2017, Salah has won numerous titles, including two Premier League titles, the Champions League, Fifa Club World Cup, Uefa Super Cup, FA Cup, and two EFL Cups, as well as the Community Shield. With 257 goals in 435 appearances for the Reds, Salah ranks third on the club's goalscorers list, behind Ian Rush and Roger Hunt. His impressive career has been marked by significant achievements, and his potential departure from the club is a significant concern for fans. ## Manager's Assessment Slot believes that the possibility of it being Salah's final game for the club was on his mind as he was substituted. The manager said, "My honest answer is yes, the way he came off, it went through his mind because there are only a few weeks to go but we are hoping he plays for us again." Slot added that tests need to be conducted to determine the extent of the injury, saying, "You have tests to do and then we have to wait for the prognosis." Any issue with the injury would likely rule Salah out of a final Liverpool appearance away against rivals Manchester United next Sunday, where he has scored 16 goals in 18 appearances. ## Upcoming Schedule After the potential final appearance against Manchester United, Liverpool will host Chelsea on 9 May and travel to Aston Villa on 17 May before concluding their season against Brentford on 24 May. The club will be hoping that Salah can recover in time to play a part in these remaining games, but for now, his future with the team remains uncertain.
