Since joining Liverpool in 2017 Mohamed Salah has been a defining figure in the club\u2019s modern era. An electrifying start silenced doubts over a failed Chelsea stint and saw him quickly smash the record for most debut goals in a season. That opening burst proved no flash in the pan. Salah paired explosivity with longevity and systematically rewrote Liverpool\u2019s record book.<\/p>\n
His goals have powered much of that legacy. He leads the way for Premier League and Champions League strikes in a Liverpool shirt and, after his 2024\u201325 campaign, became the first and only player in club history to score 20+ goals in eight straight seasons. The 2024\u201325 season produced a record-breaking 47 goal involvements as Liverpool returned to Premier League glory, and Salah collected his fifth Player of the Season award, joining Steven Gerrard in that company.<\/p>\n
Despite those milestones, the narrative has shifted in 2025\u201326. The fleet-footed winger is certainly slowing down, and his decline this season has generated questions about his future at the club. His current deal runs until the summer of 2027, but there have been suggestions that an exit at the end of the current campaign is on the cards following a difficult season for the Egypt international and his team-mates.<\/p>\n
Some landmarks are now effectively out of reach. Salah is not going to be able to surpass Ian Rush\u2019s goalscoring record of 346 strikes. Still, marginal gains remain meaningful: one more assist would see him top the Liverpool charts in the Premier League and move clear of Gerrard.<\/p>\n
Countless other records fell during the Salah era, and while time is finite, his statistical imprint on Liverpool is already profound. How many more entries he can add to the ledger before he leaves Anfield remains uncertain, but the scale of his achievements since 2017 is indisputable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
