The Egyptian King continues to chase greatness.
As he experiences his best season in a Liverpool shirt to date, Mohamed Salah seems to be writing himself into the history books with every appearance he makes.
Mohamed Salah has scored 32 goals and registered 23 assists in 46 games so far this season and after recently signing a new two-year deal with Liverpool, he should have a spring in his step to go on and achieve even more this season.
Liverpool are on the brink of their 20th top-flight title, and they now head to Leicester City tomorrow with a chance to take one step closer.
If Arsenal lose against Ipswich Town tomorrow and Liverpool beat Leicester City, they will be crowned champions.
Liverpool responded well to the shock defeat to Fulham two weeks ago as they beat West Ham last Sunday in dramatic fashion.
Luis Diaz’s opener was cancelled out by a disastrous own goal late into the game by Andy Robertson, before Virgil van Dijk stepped up and his 89th minute winning header was enough to put us thirteen points clear at the top.
In a game that could see a lot of goals, as the league’s highest scorers visit the King Power Stadium, there is one unique record that Mohamed Salah could break.
The Egyptian winger could become the first player in Premier League history to score in all six matches against promoted teams in a single season.
A feat that would be a remarkable achievement, it is testament to Salah’s consistency and sharpness in-front of goal to even be in a position to break such a record.
Salah found himself on the scoresheet home and away against Southampton and Ipswich Town aswell as scoring at home against Leicester City towards the end of last year.
A goal away at Leicester City tomorrow will get the job done.
Salah is also closing in on the record for most Premier League assists in a single season, currently held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
Liverpool’s star man needs just three more assists to assert himself as the best playmaker the league has ever seen.
