Mohamed Salah sets a new Premier League record

SHARE

Liverpool's midfield maestro, Mohamed Salah, has continued to write his name in the history books of the Premier League and the club since the beginning of this season (2024/25).

The Egyptian King, as he is popularly called in England, set two new records in the Premier League following Liverpool's emphatic victory over Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. Salah became the first player to reach double figures for both goals and assists before Christmas in a Premier League season in the history of the competition

He scored his 14th and 15th goals of the Premier League campaign, putting him two goals clear of Manchester City striker Haaland, who has scored only three times in his last 12 appearances while Salah has scored 12 goals in his last 12 matches.

This is the sixth Premier League season in which Salah has both scored and assisted more than 10 goals; the most of any player in the competition’s history (overtaking Wayne Rooney’s five).

Salah has also now moved up to fourth place in Liverpool's all-time goalscorers' chart. His 229 goals put him one ahead of former Scottish forward Billy Liddell, who scored 228 times for Liverpool in 534 appearances.
