salah could make premier league historyagain

Liverpool and Egypt winger Mohamed Salah has the opportunity to make history for the second time this season and draw level with, if not break the Premier League record for assists in a single season.

He currently sits on 18 assists this season, two assists away from equalling the Premier League record of 20 set by Thierry Henry in the 2002/03 season and matched by Kevin De Bruyne in the 2019/20 season.

Salah has already made history this season, surpassing Henry for the most goal involvements in a 38-game Premier League season with 45, one more than Henrys 44, and sits fifth all-time in goal contributions in the league with 270 goals and assists in 294 appearances

Affectionately dubbed The Egyptian King by Liverpool fans, Salah has been instrumental in Liverpools title win, and is also Golden Boot front runner with 28 goals for Liverpool this campaign, five more than next-best Alexander Isak.

His contributions in this campaign have seen him rise to fifth on the all time goalscorers list with 185 goals, two behind Andrew Cole, and 10th all time in assists with 87, two behind James Milner. He is the only African player to be inside the top 10 all time in each category.
