In conversation with Betfair, Shearer said: "I don't suspect that my Premier League goalscoring record is on Mo Salah's mind, but the record is going to go one day.

Whoever it goes to, whether it's Harry Kane, Mo Salah or Erling Haaland, I guess there's so many ifs and buts.

It will go one day and it might be Salah who does it, yeah."

Amid growing speculation, Virgil van Dijk could be next to pen a fresh deal as his current contract nears its conclusion.
