The official Egypt account has confirmed Mohamed Salah’s arrival, welcoming him back with the message: “The King is home.”

A brief post on social media has added a fresh twist to an already developing Liverpool storyline.
Mohamed Salah has joined Egypt’s pre-AFCON training camp, with the national team’s official account declaring, “The King is Home 😍🇪🇬👑” on X — a message that once again highlights the status our No.11 commands on the international stage.
From Liverpool’s viewpoint, the timing stands out amid recent discussion about his travel plans for international duty. Reports had suggested Salah would make a stop in Saudi Arabia before linking up with Egypt, sparking conversation around the trip.
However, that visit was understood to be for Umrah and possible commitments with Saudi tourism, rather than anything connected to his future at Anfield.
That distinction is important as Liverpool continue to juggle immediate ambitions with longer-term planning under Arne Slot.
On the pitch, Salah’s influence remains undeniable. His cameo against Brighton proved decisive, with his corner setting up Hugo Ekitike to extend our lead at Anfield.
That contribution took him to 277 Premier League goal involvements for Liverpool — the highest total ever achieved by a player at a single club in the competition. Figures like that explain why speculation is never far away, regardless of social media narratives.
Crucially, reliable voices have moved to calm the noise. David Ornstein has recently reiterated that Liverpool are fully committed to keeping Salah until at least the end of the season, highlighting his contract running until 2027 and the club’s clear show of faith by renewing him at significant expense.
Salah remains a record-breaking attacker, a senior presence in the squad, and a central figure in what Liverpool are building this season.
While international duty may temporarily take him away from Merseyside, Egypt’s message simply reinforces a familiar truth.
The King may be home for now — but his Liverpool journey is far from over.
