Mohamed Salah surpassed Liverpool icon Robbie Fowler's club record by scoring his 128th and 129th Premier League goals for the Reds.

However, his recent goals against Manchester United and Wolves were scored with his right foot, even though they still counted towards his overall goal tally. However, Salah managed to increase his total number of goals in the league to 11 by scoring two goals that secured the victory at Anfield. The views expressed here are that of the respective authors/ entities and do not represent the views of Economic Times (ET). In this current Premier League season, the Egyptian forward Salah faced difficulty scoring goals, along with a general decline in performance for Jurgen Klopp's team. Finally, the Egyptian striker, Mohamed Salah, was able to score a goal for himself. Salah is close to breaking the record for the highest number of left-footed goals in the Premier League, as he has already scored 102 goals with his left foot.
