Mohamed Salah leaves Liverpool F.C. after nearly a decade of remarkable achievements that transformed him into one of the most successful players in the club’s history.
Since arriving from AS Roma in 2017, the Egyptian forward consistently delivered goals, assists and record-breaking performances across domestic and European competitions.
His time at Anfield coincided with major successes for Liverpool, including Premier League triumphs during the 2019/20 and 2024/25 campaigns.
Statistics published on the official showed that Salah departed the club as one of the most decorated and statistically dominant players in English football history.
Fourth-highest goalscorer in Premier League history
Salah finished his Liverpool career with 193 Premier League goals, placing him fourth on the competition’s all-time scoring chart.
Only Alan Shearer with 260 goals, Harry Kane with 213, and Wayne Rooney with 208 scored more goals in Premier League history.
Liverpool’s highest Premier League scorer
Out of Salah’s 193 Premier League goals, 191 were scored while representing Liverpool.
He overtook Robbie Fowler as Liverpool’s all-time leading Premier League scorer after netting twice in a 7-0 victory against Manchester United F.C. in March 2023.
Salah also became one of only four Liverpool players to score at least 100 Premier League goals alongside Fowler, Steven Gerrard and Michael Owen.
Highest-scoring African player in Premier League history
Salah established himself as the most prolific African player in Premier League history.
Former Liverpool teammate, Sadio Mané, follows with 111 goals, while former Chelsea F.C. striker, Didier Drogba, recorded 104 goals.
The Egyptian also registered the highest number of assists by an African player with 94, ahead of Drogba’s tally of 55.
Most Premier League assists for Liverpool
Salah surpassed Gerrard’s long-standing Liverpool assist record in the Premier League after creating a goal for Curtis Jones during a league game against Brentford F.C..
His combined assist total in the competition reached 94, placing him level with former Arsenal F.C. forward, Dennis Bergkamp, on the all-time assist rankings.
Joint-most Premier League Golden Boots
Salah won the Premier League Golden Boot award four times during his stay in England.
That achievement placed him level with Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry, as the joint-highest winner of the award.
He secured the honours in the 2017/18, 2018/19, 2021/22 and 2024/25 seasons.
Record goal involvements for Liverpool
Salah established the highest number of direct goal involvements ever recorded for a single Premier League club.
An assist against Brighton & Hove Albion F.C. took him beyond Rooney’s previous record for Manchester United F.C..
He eventually finished with 284 combined goals and assists for Liverpool in the Premier League.
Most goal involvements in a 38-game season
During the 2024/25 campaign, Salah produced 47 goal involvements made up of 29 goals and 18 assists.
The figure surpassed the previous record of 44 jointly held by Henry and Erling Haaland.
Record achievements beyond the Premier League
Salah also enjoyed major milestones in European football and other competitions.
He became Liverpool’s third-highest scorer in all competitions with 257 goals, trailing only Ian Rush and Roger Hunt.
In October 2022, Salah scored the fastest hat-trick in UEFA Champions League history during a 7-1 victory against Rangers F.C..
The hat-trick was completed in six minutes and 12 seconds.
He also became the first African footballer to score 50 Champions League goals during Liverpool’s victory over Galatasaray S.K..
Salah equally broke Liverpool’s record for the most appearances in the European Cup and Champions League, moving ahead of former defender, Jamie Carragher.
Multiple individual honours
The Egyptian forward remains the only player to win the Premier League Player of the Season, Golden Boot and Golden Playmaker awards.
He achieved the feat during the 2024/25 campaign after another outstanding season for Liverpool.
Salah also claimed the PFA Players’ Player of the Year prize three times, setting another record in English football.
Across all competitions, the forward finished his Liverpool career with extraordinary consistency, recording goals and assists in every full season he spent at Anfield.
His departure closes one of the most successful individual eras witnessed in Liverpool’s modern history.
