Mohamed Salah moved up to seventh in the Premier League's all-time goalscoring charts with his 35th-minute strike during Liverpool's clash with Ipswich Town at Anfield on Saturday.

The 32-year-old has been in inspired form for Arne Slot's table-topping side this season and netted his 176th goal in the division to move clear of Thierry Henry (175) and one behind Chelsea legend Frank Lampard (177).

Salah is two goals clear of Manchester City's Erling Haaland and Newcastle United's Alexander Isak in the race for the golden boot this season.



The Egypt international has also contributed 13 assists.

The forward's goal almost means he is now the second highest scoring overseas player in the competition's history, behind only Sergio Aguero (184).

Since Salah joined Liverpool in 2017-18, his 174 Premier League goals are the fourth most by any player in Europe's top five leagues (he scored 2 Premier League goals for Chelsea prior to joining Liverpool).

Robert Lewandowski (245), Harry Kane (253) and Kylian Mbappé (224) are the only players who have bettered Salah's tally in that time.

Salah is in the final six months of his contract on Merseyside and is free to negotiate with non-English clubs with the view of signing a pre-contract agreement that would see him join a new team one day after the expiry of his deal.

His Liverpool teammates Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold are in an identical situation.
