Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian King, is Liverpool's all-time leading Premier League goalscorer and one of the best to have ever pulled on the shirt.
The forward arrived at Anfield from AS Roma in June 2017 vowing to 'give everything for the club' and certainly fulfilled that promise over the course of nine legendary seasons running down the wing.
Salah played a key role in the adding of two league titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and a pair of League Cups to Anfield's trophy cabinet.
With his invaluable contribution also came a host of individual honours – including three PFA Players' Player of the Year awards, the same number of FWA Footballer of the Year prizes and four Premier League Golden Boots.
Clinical, creative, skilful, robust and extremely driven, Salah's statistics are the biggest indicator of his brilliance: 257 goals and 120 assists from 442 appearances.
Only Ian Rush and Roger Hunt have scored more for Liverpool in all competitions, while Salah holds the Premier League record for most goal involvements for a single club.
By joining the Reds, he returned for a second crack at English football following a brief and challenging spell at Chelsea.
Salah started as he would go on, netting 44 times in an incredible debut season that ultimately ended with heartbreak in the Champions League final in Kyiv. His curler past Everton in the December of that term earned the 2018 FIFA Puskas Award.
With Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane leading a truly devastating front line, Liverpool under Jürgen Klopp were a force to be reckoned with on both the European and domestic scenes.
They reached the European Cup showpiece once again in 2018-19, after amassing 97 points in the Premier League but still finishing second to Manchester City and Salah retaining the Golden Boot.
A tearful Salah had been forced off due to injury against Real Madrid 12 months earlier, but returned to the same stage to dispatch an early penalty past Tottenham Hotspur and put the Reds on course for European Cup No.6.
He would help make history the following campaign as that team delivered the club its first FIFA Club World Cup and ended the 30-year wait for a top-flight championship.
His famous clincher in front of the Kop versus Manchester United in January 2020 is a defining moment of that season and led to fans first voicing their collective belief that the league title was en route.
A campaign disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic eventually ended with Liverpool back atop English football with a club-record points haul of 99.
Although the side's defence of the crown was disappointing due to various factors, they rallied to produce a 10-game unbeaten run at the end of it and finished third, after Salah had pledged to 'fight like champions, until the very end'.
The No.11 somehow managed to take his game to a whole new level in 2021-22, when he and his teammates won a cup double during a push for a quadruple.
Salah, a complete player by this point, scored 23 times in the league to bag the Golden Boot again, with his solo effort against Manchester City at Anfield voted Premier League Goal of the Season. He also delivered 13 assists to get his hands on the Playmaker prize for the first time.
In March of the following season, Salah netted twice in a 7-0 thrashing of Manchester United – his favourite opponent in a scoring sense, with 16 – to become Liverpool's record Premier League scorer, surpassing Robbie Fowler's tally of 128 in 61 fewer appearances.
Consistent as ever, he was top and joint-top of the Reds' scoring and assist charts respectively for Klopp's final campaign in charge in 2023-24.
Next, Gordon Hodgson was overtaken in third place on the all-time scorers list by Salah in the latter half of one of the greatest individual seasons.

Watch on YouTubeUnder Arne Slot, he racked up 57 goal involvements (34 goals, 23 assists) from his 52 outings in 2024-25, culminating in him lifting the Premier League trophy for the second time.
More achievements were to be had in the last of his nine campaigns at Liverpool, becoming the first African player to score 50 Champions League goals and, on his last appearance, bettering Steven Gerrard's Premier League assist record for the club.
Salah signalled his intention to close the chapter on his Reds career a few months before he officially bid Anfield farewell on an emotional final day of 2025-26.
