Salah began his senior career in 2010 at Al-Mokawloon, departing in 2012 to join Basel, where he won two Swiss Super League titles. In 2014, he joined Chelsea for a reported fee of £11 million, but limited gametime led to successive loans to Fiorentina and Roma, who later signed him permanently for €15 million. In the 2016–17 season, Salah was a key figure in Roma's unsuccessful title bid, reaching double figures in both goals and assists. In 2017, Salah moved to Liverpool for £36.9 million, a club record at the time. In his first season, he set the record for most Premier League goals scored (32) in a 38-game season and helped Liverpool to the 2018 UEFA Champions League final. Having formed a formidable attacking trio with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mané, Salah went on to be an integral player in the club's Champions League and Premier League title successes in the following two seasons. He has since also won the FA Cup, EFL Cup, FA Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. In the 2024–25 season, he won a second Premier League title in one of the finest individual seasons in Premier League history.

Salah has achieved numerous individual accolades, including two PFA Players' Player of the Year awards, three FWA Footballer of the Year awards, four Premier League Golden Boots, two Premier League Player of the Season awards, two Premier League Playmaker of the Season, finished third for the Best FIFA Men's Player in 2018 and 2021, and finished fifth in the 2019 and 2022 Ballon d'Or, respectively. He received the 2018 FIFA Puskás Award for his winning strike in the first Merseyside derby of the 2017–18 season. In 2023, Salah became Liverpool's all-time top goalscorer in the history of the Premier League, and also became the fifth player to score 200 goals for the club. In 2025, he became Liverpool's third-highest goalscorer in the club's history behind Roger Hunt and Ian Rush.

At international level, Salah represented Egypt at youth level before making his senior debut in 2011. Following his performances at the 2012 Summer Olympics, he was named CAF Most Promising African Talent of the Year. Since then, he finished as runner-up in the 2017 and 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, and was top scorer during CAF qualification as Egypt qualified for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Salah was named CAF African Footballer of the Year (2017 and 2018), BBC African Footballer of the Year (2017 and 2018), and was selected in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations Team of the Tournament, 2021 Africa Cup of Nations Team of the Tournament and the CAF Team of the Year on several occasions.

Salah is regarded as a symbol of national pride in Egypt for his achievements{{Cite news |title=More than a footballer: Mohamed Salah's profound impact in Egypt |work=This is Anfield |url=https://www.thisisanfield.com/2022/02/more-than-a-footballer-mohamed-salahs-profound-impact-in-egypt/ |access-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230401084045/https://www.thisisanfield.com/2022/02/more-than-a-footballer-mohamed-salahs-profound-impact-in-egypt/ |url-status= live}}{{Cite news |title=How Mohamed Salah managed the impossible: to unite Egypt |work=The Guardian |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/jun/14/mohamed-salah-brought-happiness-and-pride-to-egypt-world-cup-liverpool |access-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230401084045/https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/jun/14/mohamed-salah-brought-happiness-and-pride-to-egypt-world-cup-liverpool |url-status= live}} and was named in Time magazine's list of the 100 Most Influential People in 2019.{{Cite news |title=Egypt and Liverpool star Mohamed Salah included in Time's 2019 influential people list |work=Arab News |url=https://www.arabnews.com/node/1483981/media |access-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230401084043/https://www.arabnews.com/node/1483981/media |url-status= live}} Salah has also been credited for raising the profile of Liverpool among Egyptians.{{Cite news |title=Liverpool growing in Egypt thanks to Salah |work=Be Soccer |url=https://www.besoccer.com/new/liverpool-growing-in-egypt-thanks-to-salah-483506 |access-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230401084047/https://www.besoccer.com/new/liverpool-growing-in-egypt-thanks-to-salah-483506 |url-status= live}}{{Cite web |title=The view from Egypt: 'When Salah plays for LFC, the country stops to watch' |date=29 June 2019 |publisher=Liverpool F.C. |url=https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/354906-the-view-from-egypt-when-salah-plays-for-lfc-the-country-stops-to-watch |access-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-date= 1 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230401084046/https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/354906-the-view-from-egypt-when-salah-plays-for-lfc-the-country-stops-to-watch |url-status= live}}{{Cite news |title=Mo Salah and Aboutrika Spark a Debate About Religion |work=New Lines Magazine |url=https://newlinesmag.com/spotlight/mo-salah-and-aboutrika-spark-a-debate-about-religion/ |access-date= 1 September 2023 |archive-date= 1 September 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230901075342/https://newlinesmag.com/spotlight/mo-salah-and-aboutrika-spark-a-debate-about-religion/ |url-status= live}}

Salah frequently had to miss school to make the three-hour journey to training. When Salah was 15 he was noticed by then first-team manager Mohamed Radwan, who moved him to the first-team squad immediately. Salah had to be given a special diet and training program due to his muscles not being fully formed because of his young age.{{cite web |url=https://www.goal.com/en/news/inside-salahs-first-club-a-debut-at-15-half-time-tears-three/1038spaz0rakizqmasu6zhqpi |title=Inside Salah's first club: A debut at 15, half-time tears & three-hour journeys to training |work=Goal.com |first=Mahmoud |last=Abdelrahman |date=3 January 2019 |access-date=18 January 2021 |archive-date=22 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210122185605/https://www.goal.com/en/news/inside-salahs-first-club-a-debut-at-15-half-time-tears-three/1038spaz0rakizqmasu6zhqpi |url-status=live}}
