Mohamed Salah has officially cemented his place among Premier League legends by becoming the competition’s highest-scoring foreign player, overtaking the great Sergio Agüero. Salah reached this milestone by scoring his 185th Premier League goal during Liverpool’s emphatic 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur—a match that not only secured individual glory for Salah but also delivered Liverpool their 20th English top-flight title, drawing them level with title rivals, Manchester United.
Since joining Liverpool in 2017, Salah has consistently been a force of nature. This season alone, the Egyptian star has recorded 28 goals and provided 18 assists, totaling an incredible 46 goal involvements. This figure ties the Premier League record for most goal contributions in a single campaign, previously shared by Thierry Henry and Erling Haaland. Such consistency and brilliance have placed Salah fifth on the Premier League’s all-time scoring list, trailing only legends like Andrew Cole (187), Wayne Rooney (208), Harry Kane (213), and Alan Shearer (260).
Surpassing Agüero’s record of 184 goals is no small feat. The Argentine striker, who shone so brightly for Manchester City, had long been considered one of the league’s most clinical finishers. Now, Salah’s name sits above him—a testament to years of relentless excellence, resilience, and an insatiable hunger for goals.
Beyond the numbers, Salah’s impact has been transformative for Liverpool. His arrival heralded a new era of success under Jürgen Klopp, with the club lifting the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and multiple other honors during his time at Anfield. Yet even as Klopp prepares to leave his managerial role at the end of the season, Salah continues to be Liverpool’s beacon on the pitch, defying age and expectation.
As the Premier League celebrates another thrilling season, Salah’s achievement stands as one of its defining stories. At 32, the forward shows no signs of slowing down, and fans around the world eagerly anticipate how far he can climb the all-time scoring charts before his career draws to a close.
Whether measured by statistics or influence, Mohamed Salah has undeniably etched his name among the Premier League’s greatest. And with more goals surely to come, his legend is only growing.
