Mohamed Salah set to beat Wayne Rooney in another Premier League record

Liverpool’s Egyptian King, Mohamed Salah, is closing in on another historic Premier League milestone.

Mohamed Salah is just three goal contributions away from overtaking Wayne Rooney for the most goal involvements for a single club in the competition’s history.

Rooney holds the current mark with 276 goals and assists for Manchester United, while Salah stands at 274 for Liverpool.

This chase comes on the back of Salah’s record-breaking 2024/25 campaign. The 33-year-old not only led Liverpool to the league title but also matched the all-time record for most goal involvements in a single Premier League season.

Salah racked up a stunning 47 goals and assists, equaling the totals of Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole — who reached their numbers in 42-match seasons, compared to Salah’s 38.

Mohamed Salah set to break most goal involvements for a single club in Premier League record

Salah already owns the record for the most goal contributions in a 38-game season, but passing Rooney would add another jewel to his collection.

With Liverpool starting the 2025/26 season with five wins from five and Salah already on two goals and two assists, the record seems only a matter of time.

Here’s how the top goal involvement records for a single club stand:

Last season, Salah also secured his fourth Golden Boot with 29 goals and claimed the Playmaker award with 18 assists. Only Thierry Henry has won as many Golden Boots, highlighting Salah’s rare consistency.

Liverpool’s No. 11 has already started the new campaign in style and will fancy his chances to pass Rooney in the coming weeks. For a player who keeps rewriting the record books, this feels like just another chapter in a story that refuses to slow down.
