Mohamed Salah has capped off 2024 in sensational style, snatching the lead in the race for the European Golden Shoe with a phenomenal scoring spree.
The Liverpool icon now boasts an impressive 17 goals in 18 Premier League matches, eclipsing rivals across Europe’s elite leagues.
Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski held the top spot as recently as October, netting 16 goals in 18 La Liga games to surpass Manchester City’s Erling Haaland, who dazzled earlier in the season with 14 goals in 19 Premier League matches. However, the Egyptian King dethroned both in December with his relentless form.
Salah’s brilliance comes amid fierce competition. Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane remains in pursuit, tallying 14 Bundesliga goals, including a trio of hat-tricks. Meanwhile, Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé, despite a slower start, is climbing the charts with 10 goals in La Liga.
As Salah leads the charge into 2025, his golden touch has Liverpool fans dreaming of more glory. Europe’s elite forwards may be hot on his heels, but for now, the Egyptian King reigns supreme.
