Mohamed Salah has hit the 20-goal mark in a Premier League season for the fifth time in his Liverpool career.

The No.11’s brace against AFC Bournemouth on Saturday took him to 21 goals in just 23 top-flight appearances this term.

Salah previously reached 20 goals in a league campaign for the Reds in 2017-18 (32), 2018-19 (22), 2020-21 (22) and 2021-22 (23).

The only other players to score 20+ goals in a Premier League season on five occasions are Alan Shearer (seven times), Thierry Henry (five), Sergio Aguero (six) and Harry Kane (six).

In Salah’s other three top-flight campaigns with Liverpool, he scored 19 in each of 2019-20 and 2022-23, and 18 in 2023-24.

And with 178 goals, the Egyptian has now overtaken Frank Lampard to go sixth in the Premier League’s all-time leading scorers list. He is just six behind Aguero in fifth and nine adrift of fourth-placed Andrew Cole.
