Szoboszlai reveals private Salah talks ahead of Liverpool exit

Dominik Szoboszlai has offered a revealing glimpse into Mohamed Salah’s looming departure from Liverpool FC, disclosing that the pair have held private conversations about the forward’s next move as the end of an era approaches at Anfield.

Salah is set to bring the curtain down on a glittering nine-year spell with Liverpool at the conclusion of the current campaign, a period that has firmly established him among the club’s modern greats and one of the most decisive attackers of his generation.

While the Egyptian’s exit has already been confirmed, Szoboszlai’s comments shed light on the personal side of the transition, highlighting the close bond shared between the two players behind the scenes.

Speaking at a recent charity event, the Hungary captain did not attempt to mask his admiration for Salah, pointing to the forward’s extraordinary influence both on and off the pitch.

Rather than dwell on the obvious, Szoboszlai emphasized that Salah’s legacy speaks through his achievements, underlining the global stature he has attained during his time in England.

“Yeah, I don’t have to talk too much about it because everyone knows.

“The numbers speak for themselves, the stuff he has done on the pitch speaks for itself and he is one of the best that has ever played.”

Beyond the statistics and accolades, Szoboszlai painted a picture of a dressing room leader whose professionalism continues to set the standard. Even as speculation surrounds his next destination, Salah remains fully committed in training, serving as a model figure for both emerging talents and established names within the squad.

“To be honest maybe you know I am very close with Mo.

“We had a lot of talks about what is going to happen in the future and it is his own decision. He is a grown man, it’s his own decision.”

Szoboszlai’s remarks underline the respect Salah commands among his teammates, not merely as a footballer but as a personality who elevates those around him.

The midfielder acknowledged that the winger’s approach to daily preparation and conduct has left a lasting impression on the squad, reinforcing his importance beyond matchday contributions.

Szoboszlai suggested that ending Salah’s Anfield journey with another major trophy would represent a perfect conclusion to a remarkable chapter.

“He knows what to do. I think he is professional enough to act in a way that he has to because to leave with one of the trophies we are going for would be amazing.”
