Mohamed Salah sets new Liverpool assist record in Premier League
Mohamed Salah etched his name into Liverpool’s history books on Sunday, delivering a decisive assist in his final match for the club to become the Reds’ all-time leading provider in Premier League fixtures. The Egyptian forward capped off a memorable tenure at Anfield with this milestone achievement, surpassing the previous record held by club legend Steven Gerrard.
a historic final contribution
In the 38th and concluding fixture of the Premier League season, Salah turned provider for Curtis Jones as Liverpool secured a 1-1 draw against Brentford. This assist marked his 93rd in the top-flight competition, edging past Gerrard’s long-standing record of 92. The landmark moment came on the very pitch where Salah had delivered countless moments of brilliance during his eight-year stint with the Merseyside giants.
farewell to Anfield
The 33-year-old forward bid adieu to Anfield after amassing an impressive 442 appearances across all competitions. His contributions extended beyond goal-scoring, with 123 assists recorded in total for Liverpool. Salah’s impact was particularly notable in European competitions, where he stands as the club’s top scorer with 53 goals in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League combined.
a legacy of excellence
Salah’s departure leaves a void that will be difficult to fill. His consistency, creativity, and lethal finishing made him a fan favorite and a nightmare for defenders across the Premier League. As he departs, the club and its supporters reflect on a period that saw Salah transform into one of the most feared and respected forwards in football history.
