Salah was on fire again as Liverpool cruised to a 5-0 win against West Ham on Sunday night. The Egyptian forward bagged a goal and two assists in the match, making history in the process. The 32-year-old is now the first player in the Premier League to score and assist in eight separate games across a single campaign.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Salah's form has been reflective of Liverpool's under Arne Slot, who has transitioned seamlessly into the role once occupied by Jurgen Klopp. His right-winger is doing everything right so far this term and is worth his weight in gold, surely making a new contract at the club a no-brainer. Salah is set to become a free agent in the summer of 2025, unless a new deal can be agreed in Merseyside.
DID YOU KNOW?
With his two assists against West Ham, Salah has now moved to 10th in the all-time assist rankings, with 81. He is now above the legendary David Beckham, quite an achievement for the Liverpool man.

WHAT NEXT FOR SALAH?
Salah will have no plans to slow down heading into 2025. With Liverpool in pole position, the veteran winger and the Reds will be on the charge in the New Year, starting with Manchester United on Sunday.
