This season, Mohamed Salah has the potential to break seven records and accomplish wonders at Liverpool.

Mohamed Salah was Liverpool's least prolific player last season, highlighting the high expectations he has for himself.

The forward only scored 18 goals, which is down for his usual standards. Throughout the campaign, there were concerns regarding his long-term future at Merseyside, particularly since his contract expires in June 2025.

Salah is still going strong in 2024/25 and hopes to add to his tremendous array of accolades, records, and achievements.

The Egyptian may set records and achieve milestones this season, as listed below.

Top five all-time Premier League scorers.

Salah has been in amazing scoring form in the Premier League, with seven goals in his opening ten outings. This improves his tally in England's top league to 164 goals, surpassing Jermain Defoe (162) and Robbie Fowler (163). He is currently just 20 goals away from tying fifth-place Sergio Agüero, who is three goals behind Andy Cole, fourth all-time.

He is on target to score 27 goals this season, putting him only behind three England internationals: Wayne Rooney (208), Harry Kane (213), and Alan Shearer (260). However, if he does not sign a new contract with Liverpool, his progress may come to an end. Even with a new deal, he would need to go above and above to match Shearer's record.

Third all-time Liverpool goal scorer.

Salah will be remembered as a Liverpool legend, and few will argue that he belongs among the club's greatest players. He has already smashed several records while wearing the red jersey and is ranked fifth on the club's all-time scoring list.

He is presently eight goals shy of tying the famous Billy Liddell's record of 228 goals, and that milestone should be met soon. There is also a reasonable probability that he may surpass Gordon Hodgson, who is third with 241 goals, as Salah is only 21 goals behind him.

That would leave him trailing just Roger Hunt (285 goals) and Ian Rush (346 goals), though it appears doubtful that he will pass Rush to win the top spot.

Premier League's top scoring foreign player.

Since its inception in 1992, the Premier League has progressively evolved into one of Europe's most varied top-tier competitions, with over 110 different countries represented and more than 101 goals scored.

Dwight Yorke was the first non-English player to achieve 100 goals, and Didier Drogba was the first African player to do it. Salah is one of three foreign players in the competition's all-time top 10 goal scorers, including Thierry Henry (175) and the aforementioned Sergio Agüero (184).

He's just 20 goals behind the Argentine striker. Salah is expected to surpass Agüero as the Premier League's highest-scoring foreign player, setting a new standard for others outside England to strive for.

Top 10 in Premier League assists

Salah is not only a talented goal scorer, but also a generous playmaker. In five of his past seven Premier League seasons, he has scored more than ten goals. He is currently halfway to another double-digit assist total, and if he keeps this up, he could join the competition's all-time top 10 providers list.

He presently has 74 assists, tying him with Ashley Young and Thierry Henry. He is on par with Teddy Sheringham and Christian Eriksen, who both have 76 assists. While Young and Eriksen could perhaps increase to their totals, Salah is more likely to reach 81 assists and surpass David Beckham (80) for tenth place on the all-time list.

Most goals and assists in a Premier League match.

What is the definition of "most valuable player"? It may allude to someone who can constantly score and create in the same game. Salah excels at this, having done so in 34 different Premier League matches.

This is the second-highest total in competition history, after only Wayne Rooney's 36 matches.

Given the possibility that Salah will score frequently in Liverpool's remaining encounters, he will only need to deliver an assist in three games while also scoring. As a result, it is reasonable to expect the Egyptian King to claim this record soon.

Premier League Game-Winners

Liverpool is seen as one of the favourites to win the Premier League this season, in part because they have a player who can change the game in an instant. Salah simply needs a moment to make a difference, whether Liverpool is controlling the game or attempting a comeback.

Salah scored his 48th match-winning goal in the Premier League, joining only five other players in the competition's history.

Alan Shearer holds the record for most match-winning goals, with 68. Liverpool now has 28 games left in the season, meaning Salah would need to win 21 of them. This appears implausible, but there is still a chance, which is why we put this achievement on our list.

The first English club to score 50 Champions League goals.

Away from the Premier League, Liverpool is having a good Champions League season, with a perfect record after three games, alongside Aston Villa. Salah has already scored one goal, extending his total to 45, 42 of which came while playing for Liverpool. This opens up an exciting opportunity for him.

Although Salah has the most Champions League goals for an English club, only six players have scored 50 goals for a single club: Thomas Müller (54 - Bayern Munich), Raúl (66 - Real Madrid), Robert Lewandowski (69 - Bayern Munich), Karim Benzema (78 - Real Madrid), Cristiano Ronaldo (105 - Real Madrid), and Lionel Messi (120 - Barcelona).

He only needs eight more goals to reach this milestone, which appears to be within reach given Liverpool's next five league games. Moving on to the knockout stage will provide Salah with even more opportunity to become the first player to achieve 50 Champions League goals for a single English club.

Rodri of Manchester City criticizes Real Madrid's tactics following their Champions League defeat: I only saw one squad.

  Rodri complained about Real Madrid's tactics after Manchester City's painful Champions League quarter-final loss, saying he "saw only one team" striving to win. City's European title defence came to an end in agony on Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium, with the Spanish giants winning 4-3 in penalties after a 1-1 draw on the night made the tie 4-4 on aggregate.  The holders dominated the match, with 33 shots on goal to the visitors' eight, but Real defended deep to frustrate them and ultimately extinguish their dreams of a second consecutive triple. City midfielder Rodri stated, "To be honest, I only saw one team. They defended well. They knew how to suffer, and we know how resilient Real Madrid is. "But, in my opinion, we should take that many chances; yet, this is the trick of this competition. They understand how to play it. We congratulate them. "We gave all, and there is nothing to regret. This can occasionally be football. This demonstrat...

Barcelona's final attempt to register Dani Olmo will face a court battle.

Barcelona's chances of having Dani Olmo and Pau Victor available for the rest of the season appear to be dwindling. After missing the deadline to remain registered for the remainder of the season, Barcelona delivered La Liga all of the necessary documentation for the sale of their VIP seats, a deal worth an estimated €110 million that would allow them to do so. However, due to the missing deadline, La Liga would not allow Barcelona to keep Olmo and Victor registered, as rules prohibit players from being registered twice. As a result, Barcelona's sole contractual option is to file a court appeal to their decision. According to MD, they have a variety of legal options. They may claim force majeure, which refers to unforeseeable situations that prevent them from assembling the documentation for La Liga, but legal experts say that is unlikely to qualify for that verdict. However, according to the Catalan daily, the most likely argument is that the registration period be extended...

Borussia Dortmund is 'considering a bid' for Marcus Rashford.

Borussia Dortmund is investigating a transfer for Marcus Rashford. According to the Athletic's David Ornstein, the Bundesliga club has joined the hunt for Manchester United's out-of-favour attacker in the summer. Rashford has become a peripheral character at Old Trafford with the arrival of Rúben Amorim, being dropped from four consecutive matchday lineups. He returned for a home loss to Newcastle but missed last weekend's draw at Liverpool due to illness, and his long-term chances remain bleak. Rashford has also been linked with Serie A giants Milan and Juventus, as well as many undisclosed Premier League suitors.

The most intriguing Euro 2024 quarter-final ties are listed.
