In what is potentially proving to be Mohamed Salah's hardest since he arrived at Liverpool, the Egyptian striker has got to another special figure. He has now played 200 games in the English top flight with the Reds, which is an all-time record for African players in the Premier League. That is how BeSoccer Pro have put it in this small summary.
At 30 yeas of age, Mohamed Salah has become a fundamental part of Liverpool. where he has played 284 matches, and in the Premier League, where he played 213 times (he was at Chelsea beforehand). If we combine those two aspects, it gives us a clear bit of data: Salah has now played 200 Premier League games for Liverpool. And he is the first African footballer to achieve it.
Salah has clearly been an integral part of Klopp's Reds in those 200 Premier League games with the Reds. Since arriving at Anfield, his formidable nature in front of goal has been a constant in his personal stats, who in those 200 games has managed to score 125 goals, as well as getting 51 assists.
He is the first African to achieve it in a Liverpool shirt. He came into the club and left Sadio Mane behind him, who before leaving for Bayern Munich played for the Reds in the Premier League 196 times. Joal Matip has also got over the 100 mark and it still going strong with 134 appearances.
