Mohamed Salah appeared in his last match for Liverpool on May 24, 2026, helping the team claim a 1-1 draw against Brentford in the Premier League [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. Salah recorded an assist during the game, bringing his career total for Liverpool to 93 assists and surpassing Steven Gerrard's club record of 92 [1, 2, 3, 5].

The match held strong emotional moments, with Salah visibly moved on the pitch, embracing teammates and saying a prayer before leaving [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. "I think I cried more than in my whole life. I’m not really an emotional guy," Salah said, reflecting on his time at the club. "We lived our youth here, sharing everything from the beginning to the end. We put this club back where it belongs," he added [1, 5].

Liverpool finished fifth in the 2025-26 Premier League season, securing qualification for next season’s Champions League [1, 2, 3, 5]. Despite earlier public criticism of manager Arne Slot's playing style and expressing frustration during the campaign, Salah was included in the starting lineup for his farewell match [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].

Salah scored 257 goals for Liverpool, making him the club’s third highest all-time scorer behind Ian Rush (346) and Roger Hunt (285) [5]. He was Liverpool’s top scorer in the previous 2024-25 season with 29 goals but netted just 7 in the 2025-26 league season [5]. Salah is 33 years old at the time of his final appearance [1, 2, 3, 5].

The game was also Andy Robertson’s final Liverpool appearance. Like Salah, he joined the club in the 2017 transfer window and contributed to major successes, including Premier League and Champions League titles [4, 5]. Robertson received a standing ovation from fans and described feeling "emotionally drained" after the match, recalling intense title races with Manchester City during his career [4, 5]. "In years to come, we know we are both welcome back to this football club. This is a big chapter in our book, but it’s not the end," Robertson said [5].

After the final whistle, Liverpool players and staff formed a guard of honour to salute both Salah and Robertson [1, 2, 3].

Salah reflected on his departing emotions, saying he expects to be emotional every time he visits Liverpool in the future and hopes the team continues fighting for top positions [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. Earlier this year, Liverpool formally announced Salah’s departure in March, months after he publicly criticised the club’s management and coaching style [4, 5]. Manager Arne Slot praised fans for making special moments around the farewell [5].
