Mohamed Salah is set to add a new record to his career with Liverpool if he scores during the Reds' match against Brighton today, Saturday, in the tenth week of the English Premier League. According to the Liverpool club website, if Salah scores today, he will equal the legendary player Kenny Dalglish as the top scorer for Liverpool against Brighton. The Egyptian has scored five goals for the Reds against Brighton, matching the tally of former Liverpool star Ian Rush, while Dalglish holds the record with six goals.
Salah (29 years old) is having the best start to his football career this season, having scored in his last 10 consecutive matches with Liverpool across all competitions. He currently leads the Premier League scoring chart with 10 goals after just 9 rounds. Last weekend, the Egyptian pharaoh achieved a historic milestone by becoming the top African scorer in Premier League history, raising his tally to 107 goals, surpassing Chelsea legend and retired Ivorian striker Didier Drogba, who has 104 goals.
It is worth noting that Liverpool is currently in second place in the English Premier League with 21 points, just one point behind leaders Chelsea.
