Mo Salah takes over club legend Steven Gerrard with goal against Bournemouth

During Liverpool's match against Bournemouth, Mohamed Salah overtakes club great Steven Gerrard as the club's fifth best goal scorer.

Mohamed Salah has finally broken Steven Gerrard’s record. With 187 goals, he now ranks fifth all-time at Liverpool. The most recent was against Bournemouth in the Premier League.

The Egyptian international has officially surpassed Liverpool great Steven Gerrard (186) as the club’s fifth all-time leading goalscorer. A significant achievement for a player who, despite his amazing consistency in the Premier League, has received a surprising amount of criticism in England.

Mohamed Salah has accumulated the total in 306 games. This enables him to set his eyes on club veteran Billy Liddell, who is currently fourth with 228 strikes. Surpassing Gerrard is undoubtedly noteworthy, and Salah’s climb up the charts is only one of several records. As he has done since his arrival at the club in 2017.

For this incredible achievement, Mo Salah scored the rebound from a missed penalty. Salah attempts to use power, but Neto stays in the middle and stops it with a firm hand. The ball comes back wonderfully for Salah from four yards out, and he slots it in. He now has nine Premier League goals in nine games versus the Cherries.

The 30-year-old’s extraordinary achievements at the club include becoming the first Liverpool player since Roger Hunt in 1965/66 to score 20 league goals in three consecutive seasons – now to see if he can make it four in a row.
