MOHAMED SALAH has committed his long-term future to Liverpool by signing a new five-year contract which does not include a release clause.

Klopp hailed Salah’s commitment as evidence that “world-class talent” has a place at Anfield.

“I think this news can be seen for what it is; rewarding a person who performed and contributed greatly for the team and the club last season,” the Liverpool manager said.
