Liverpool’s star, Mohamed Salah, currently the second-highest scorer in the ongoing English Premier League season, is aiming to achieve a new record in his remarkable journey with the Reds since joining the team in 2017 from Italian side AS Roma.
Throughout the current season, “Mo” has set several records and made a significant impact on his team, whether by creating goals or scoring them.
Liverpool is set to face Burnley at Turf Moor, the home ground of the latter, as part of the 19th round in the league.
If Mohamed Salah scores a goal against Burnley, he will become the fifth player in Liverpool’s history to reach 150 goals for the team in the English Premier League, according to the club’s official website.
In the previous league round, Salah scored the equalizing goal in the clash between Liverpool and Arsenal, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
This would bring the Egyptian international to goal number 151 in the English Premier League (2 with Chelsea and 149 with Liverpool), placing him in the tenth position in the list of all-time top scorers in the league, surpassing former Liverpool star Michael Owen.
Liverpool currently holds the second position in the Premier League standings with 39 points, while Burnley sits in the 19th position with 11 points.
It is worth noting that the Liverpool vs. Burnley match is scheduled to kick off at 7:30 PM Cairo time. Salah’s pursuit of this milestone adds an extra layer of anticipation to this encounter.
