Mohamed Salah has been crowned the 2024/25 Premier League Player of the Season following a phenomenal year that saw him dominate both scoring and creative charts while guiding Liverpool to yet another league title.
The Egyptian forward, now 32, delivered a campaign of staggering consistency and brilliance, cementing his legacy as one of the Premier League’s greatest-ever players.
Unrivalled numbers define a historic season
Salah’s statistical output this season has been nothing short of extraordinary.
With 28 goals and 18 assists, he led the Premier League in both categories, becoming the first player in the competition’s history to do so in a single campaign.
His combined total of 46 direct goal involvements surpasses Erling Haaland’s 2022/23 mark of 44, setting a new benchmark for attacking productivity.
The Liverpool star wasn’t just padding his numbers against weaker opposition either.
Salah delivered in the season’s biggest fixtures, routinely stepping up against the Premier League’s elite.
He scored and assisted in crunch games, turning the tide in tightly contested encounters.
His impact was not merely statistical—it was decisive.
Catalyst behind Liverpool’s title triumph
Liverpool’s Premier League triumph this season owed much to Salah’s influence.
Far from being just a poacher, the Egyptian international evolved his game, frequently dropping into deeper positions to initiate attacks, link play, and press opponents with intelligence and intensity.
“This isn’t a title won solely by collective strength,” a club insider noted. “Salah has single-handedly turned many matches around.”
His ability to rise to key moments—whether with a late goal, a game-changing assist, or a burst of creativity in tight spaces—made him Liverpool’s undisputed talisman throughout the title run.
A legend still rising at 32
Salah’s form this season defies the expectations typically placed on ageing forwards.
At 32, while many of his peers begin to wane, Salah appears to be reaching new heights.
His sharpness, tactical awareness, and physical resilience continue to impress in a league that demands relentless intensity.
“El-Hadji Diouf once asked, ‘What if Salah went to Manchester City?’” That question may never be answered, but Salah has proven he never needed to leave Liverpool to be world-class.
His influence extends beyond Anfield and the Premier League—he is now a global football icon.
As the season concludes, Salah’s consistency, leadership, and historic achievements make him not just a deserving recipient of this award, but a serious contender for global honours such as the Ballon d’Or.
Mohamed Salah is no longer simply a great player. He is a legend—still writing his story.
