Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah continues rewriting history books after delivering another decisive performance against Manchester City in today’s Premier League clash. The Egyptian forward capitalized on a defensive error in the 12th minute at Etihad Stadium, firing home via deflection to give Liverpool an early lead in this crucial title-race showdown.
Season of Records
The 32-year-old has now scored 18 goals across all competitions this season despite Liverpool’s midfield rebuild. His latest strike comes days after becoming Liverpool’s all-time leading Premier League goalscorer (154 goals) during their 2-1 victory over Wolves on May 12th.
Contract Talks Intensify
With Salah’s current contract expiring in June 2025, negotiations for an extension have reportedly accelerated following his match-winning contributions. Club insiders suggest new sporting director Michael Edwards wants resolution before preseason begins.
African Football Legacy
Salah recently became Egypt’s most-capped player (104 appearances) while recovering from January’s AFCON hamstring injury. His 68 international goals remain an African record among active players.
