Salah left Liverpool this summer after nine ‌years, having scored 257 goals in 442 appearances, where he won the Premier League twice and the Champions League once. In the 2024-25 season Salah scored 29 Premier League goals and provided 18 assists, equalling the league record for most goal involvements in a season and setting the record for a 38-game campaign. He was named Premier League Player ‌of the Season and won the Golden Boot and the Playmaker Award, becoming the first player to take all three in one campaign. Salah had been close to joining the Istanbul club Besiktas, whose football director Onder Ozen said negotiations had stalled over financial and image-rights demands, according to local media.
