Mohamed Salah given six-month driving ban after Wilmslow speed-camera offence

Mohamed Salah has been banned from driving for six months after a speed camera recorded his Rolls-Royce in Wilmslow, Cheshire on 27 March. Court documents say the vehicle was clocked above the limit on that date.

The speed-camera reading showed the Rolls-Royce at 36mph (58 km/h) on a 30mph (48 km/h) stretch of road, and Salah, 34, failed to tell police who was at the wheel, according to court papers. He did not respond to the notice of the prosecution brought by Cheshire Police and did not enter a plea to the charge.

A court spokeswoman said Salah was prosecuted under the Single Justice Procedure, which sees magistrates sit in private hearings, and was convicted of failing to give information relating to the identification of the driver of the Rolls-Royce. At a hearing at Warrington Combined Court he was handed a six-month driving ban and ordered to pay £1,044.

The speeding offence occurred days after the Egypt captain announced he would be leaving Liverpool following nine years with the club. Liverpool announced his departure on 24 March and said he had "firmly established himself as one of the greatest players in Liverpool's history."

He scored 257 goals in 442 appearances for Liverpool. Following the 2025-26 season he transferred to Turkish side Trabzonspor.
