300th Premier League appearance for Salah
Liverpool celebrate their Egyptian star Mohamed Salah for reaching his 300th Premier League appearance with the Reds.
Salah starts in Liverpool's XI against Nottingham Forest at Anfield in Saturday’s Premier League fixture, as the 12th round unfolds.
Liverpool's official account on X posted: 'A historic milestone for Mo… his 300th Premier League appearance with the Reds'.
Salah becomes the fifth Liverpool player to reach 300 EPL appearances, following Jamie Carragher (508), Steven Gerrard (504), Jordan Henderson (360) and Sami Hyypia (318).
The reigning Premier League champions hope Salah can reclaim his golden-touch form for the 2025-26 season, while a future move remains a possibility.
If that proves true, there may be no need to talk about a breakup, but big-spending clubs in the Middle East, notably the Saudi Pro League, could test Liverpool's resolve as Salah eyes a fresh challenge at 33.
Can Liverpool agree to sell Salah?
GOAL’s exclusive interview with a former Liverpool goalkeeper, James, suggested that neither club nor player were obliged to stay, and future negotiations would shape any decision.
He added that contracts serve both sides; if new challenges and strong numbers come, Liverpool might listen to offers.
He insisted that even with Salah producing, there would be a realistic plan for replacements, as risk management becomes part of squad-building.
The discussion also touched on longevity, with Salah, Ronaldo and Messi cited as examples; Salah is 33 and could still attract deals if he continues scoring.
As for a potential successor, Michael Olise of Bayern Munich has been repeatedly linked with a move to Anfield, becoming a focal point of talks between fans and the club.
Liverpool reportedly move quickly to lay out a strategic plan to replace Salah should he depart, showcasing a willingness to act decisively.
Olise, 23, is thriving at Bayern and is viewed as one of Europe’s brightest talents, with the French winger making a strong case as a future star for Liverpool.
Thus, Salah's looming departure would mark the end of a golden era, but the club believes in continuity and a future-proof approach.
Punchline 1: If Salah leaves, Liverpool might need a GPS to locate all those goals—Good Pies Still? No, Goals.
Punchline 2: And if Olise replaces him, at least the club will have a winger who can spell “goals” in French—buts, in training, of course.
