Egyptian international Mohamed Salah is awaiting a new historical number with the Reds if he can score a goal in his team’s match against Aston Villa tomorrow, Wednesday, at nine thirty in the evening, in the competitions of the 29th round of the English Premier League for the current season 2024-25.
Salah is approaching a historical record
According to the official Liverpool website, if Mohamed Salah scored a goal in tomorrow’s match, he will achieve a new record for the club by scoring 15 goals away from home in one season of the Premier League.
This number will make him outperform the record that Luis Suarez achieved in the 2013-2014 season, where he had 14 goals outside the ground in that season.
One step separates Salah from a double number
In addition, Salah is one goal from becoming the third player in the English Premier League history to score a double number in the critical goals and passes in the matches playing outside his home.
This achievement was previously achieved by Mozi Ezzette in the 2003-2004 season (10 goals and 10 decisive passes) and Cesc Fabregas in the 2014-2015 season (11 goals and 11 assists).
Salah numbers with Liverpool this season
Mohamed Salah participated directly in 37 goals in 25 Premier League matches this season, scoring 23 goals and making 14 other goals.
The previous season witnessed Salah scoring more goals in the English Premier League, the 2017-2018 season, where he scored 32 goals and made 10 goals in his first season with Liverpool.
Renewal of Salah’s contract with Liverpool
In a related context, the British “Cote out” website reported that Mohamed Salah has become closer to ever to renew his contract with Liverpool. Salah’s contract expires at the end of the current season, and he joined the Reds in the summer of 2017 coming from Italian Rome for 42 million euros.
In the past few days, Liverpool has intensified its negotiations with the Egyptian international, in an attempt to secure Salah’s survival in the team.
Salah said earlier that this may be his last year in the club because of the lack of progress in the negotiations, but the recent developments indicate that Salah has become inclined to survive, as the influence of the new coach, Arny Slot, had a major role in his decision, in addition to the continuous success of the Liverpool team .
