Former Liverpool footballer Mohamed Salah has been banned from driving for six months after his Rolls-Royce was caught speeding. The incident occurred on 27 March in Wilmslow, Cheshire, when the car was recorded traveling at 36mph (58 km/h) on a road with a 30mph (48 km/h) speed limit. According to court documents, Salah did not inform the police who was driving the vehicle at the time of the offense. The 34-year-old did not respond to the prosecution notice from Cheshire Police and did not enter a plea during the court hearing.
In a hearing at Warrington Combined Court, Salah was given a six-month driving ban and ordered to pay a fine of £1,044. The court used the Single Justice Procedure, which allows for private hearings led by magistrates, and Salah was found guilty of failing to provide information about the driver of the Rolls-Royce. The speeding incident took place just days after Salah announced he would be leaving Liverpool after nearly a decade with the club.
Salah had been a key player for Liverpool, scoring 257 goals in 442 appearances. The club praised him on 24 March, stating that he had "firmly established himself as one of the greatest players in Liverpool's history." He is set to move to Turkish club Trabzonspor after the 2025-26 season. His legal case, while unrelated to his football career, has drawn attention due to his high-profile status as a professional athlete.
