Mohamed Salah broke another record with his club Liverpool after scoring his 150th goal with the Reds against Norwich City in the Premier League yesterday. Salah became the 10th player in Liverpool’s history to score 150 goals with the club. Moreover, he became the second-fastest player in the club to achieve this milestone after Roger Hunt. 

Hunt scored his 150 goals in 226 matches and Salah scored them in 232 matches. After the Reds’ comeback 3-1 against Norwich City yesterday, Salah said: “It feels great. I’m always proud to score for this club, and the most important thing is to win games which is what we did today.” Salah has scored 25 goals in 30 appearances this season including 17 goals in 23 Premier League matches.
