Liverpool’s Modern legend
Since joining the club from AS Roma in 2017, Mohamed Salah has established himself as one of the greatest players in Liverpool’s history.
The Egyptian star has led the Reds to win all domestic titles, including the UEFA Champions League in 2019.
Although Erling Haaland broke Salah’s record for most goals scored in a single Premier League season (38 games) in the 2022/23 season, Salah continues to write his name in Liverpool’s records.
Liverpool fans hope his brilliance will continue for a longer period, especially with his contract ending this summer.
