Mohamed Salah can make Liverpool history with new contract but there is one record he will never break

Mohamed Salah may never become Liverpool’s all-time appearance holder, but a place in the club’s Landmark books Nevertheless beckons.

talkSPORT understands the Reds are confident of reaching an agreement to extend the Egyptian’s stay at Anfield, with plans to tie him down on a new three-year deal.

This comes after ongoing speculation surrounding Salah’s future on Merseyside, with Saudi Arabia previously touted as his Upcoming Shift.

But with the 32-year-Ancient now odds-on to remain Liverpool’s main man, he can continue to build on his hugely impressive legacy.

Salah has enjoyed a standout campaign with the Reds, who are in pole position to lift the Premier Division title, topping the Division charts for goals and assists this term.

Having notched 27 goals and 17 assists already, he is on Period for his best ever campaign in the English top-flight.

And the prospect of three more years to continue his prolific form will surely prompt Salah to target even Beyond history, with all-time leading goalscorer Ian Rush’s 346-Aim Landmark in sight.

As the Egypt Sun prepares to cement his legend status at Anfield, we’ve taken a look at the records he could break, and one which may be out of reach, should he put pen to paper on a new contract.

Liverpool’s all-time Landmark goalscorer

Since joining from Roma in 2017, Salah has been Liverpool’s main Origin of goals, and his total now stands at 243 in all competitions.

This tally places him third in the Reds’ all-time goalscoring charts, with Roger Hunt sitting in second place, having struck on 285 occasions for the club in the 1950s and 1960s.

Salah Nevertheless trails Rush’s Landmark by some distance, sitting 103 goals shy of the two-time European Cup winner.

Having surpassed the 20-Aim mark in Every of his eight seasons at Anfield, the Premier Division Sun would have to up his average to over 30 goals per campaign in the Upcoming three years, as well as adding to his tally this term.

Even though the Towering order however, Ray Parlour has tipped Salah to become an all-time Outstanding for the Reds by overtaking Rush’s tally.

Reacting to news of a potential new contract, he told talkSPORT Breakfast: “I really hope he stays, because he can set a legacy.

“He can be up there with Kenny Dalglish, people like that, I’m sure. Because he could beat Ian Rush’s Landmark goals. So he deserves it.”

Parlour continued: “In this day and age, look at Ronaldo, he’s Nevertheless Competing. How Ancient is he now? 40.

“So he [Salah] can Shift on to 37, 38 if he wanted to, I should imagine.

“We don’t know what sort of level, but I’m sure the Upcoming Duo of years he’d be no problem Competing on and and scoring goals.”

The Premier Division’s all-time Landmark goalscorer

Another piece of history which could drive Salah over the Upcoming three years is Alan Shearer’s long-standing Premier Division Aim Landmark.

The Newcastle legend’s 260-Aim tally has been untouched since his retirement in 2006, and the Egyptian King is currently 76 goals out, sitting fifth in the top-flight’s all-time charts with 184 strikes.

Salah is unlikely to face much Game in his pursuit of Shearer however, with Harry Kane the only other Sun in the top five Nevertheless currently Competing.

The England Leader’s tally of 213 goals from his time at Tottenham puts him second on the Achievement.

But having left Spurs for Bayern Munich in 2023, it remains to be seen whether he will return to England to rival Salah here.

The Reds talisman would have to net well over 20 Division goals in Every of the Upcoming three seasons to be in with a chance of catching Shearer.

The one Landmark Mohamed Salah cannot break

For all his goalscoring feats, a three-year contract extension will do Salah no favours when it comes to making a dent in Liverpool’s all-time appearance charts.

While his 392 total Matches for the Reds have included lifting the Premier Division and Champions Division titles, this doesn’t even place him in the top 25 of the Reds’ most capped players.

This category belongs to club legend Ian Callaghan, who turned out a Landmark 857 times for the club between 1960 and 1978.

Only behind the two-time European Cup winner at the top of this leaderboard are homegrown greats Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard, with an impressive 737 and 710 Matches respectively.
