Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has officially responded to claims he could follow Jurgen Klopp out of the club at the end of the season.

Klopp confirmed stunned the football world earlier this year when he confirmed he will be leaving Anfield at the end of the campaign.

Salah had already been linked with a move away from Liverpool before the start of the season, with Saudi Pro League teams reportedly keen.

"No, no – it’s life, it’s part of life now that everything moves," Salah said when asked if Klopp's decision would influence his future.

"Players left the club already for, very important players left the club.

"The manager is also very important for the club and he is leaving the club. One day I will leave the club so, but no."

The Egyptian forward also revealed how he reacted when he found out the German tactician was leaving.

"Usually we don't do meetings at 10.30am, as 10.30 is the report time. It's normally a 10.30 meet time and then 12 noon training. Then they said there was a meeting at 10.30am. I was like: 'What?'

"The manager's agent was there at the training ground and I thought: 'Oh, he's renewing his contract'. And five minutes before the meeting, Virgil [van Dijk] said: 'Do you know what the meeting is about?' I said no. He said: 'The manager is leaving'. I said: 'Really, the manager is leaving? You serious? Why?' He said: 'No idea'.

"Then the manager came in and he just said it and it was weird because no-one knew before. There was nothing in the media. He didn't even prepare us for that, he just said it. That was a weird day for us and for the club."
