Mohamed Salah has stated he hopes "our paths will cross again" in a touching tribute to his departing Liverpool teammates including long-time strike partner Roberto Firmino.
Brazilian forward Firmino is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season after eight years at the club. His exit signals that of another of the Reds' heralded front three which has helped bring them so much success in recent years, following the sale of Sadio Mane last summer, leaving Salah as the last man standing.
In addition to Firmino, vice-captain James Milner is also moving on to pastures new, along with fellow midfielders Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. All four players were celebrated after Liverpool's final home game of the season on Saturday in what felt like the real end of an era, with Salah now paying his own personal tribute on social media.
