Mohamed Salah predicted to break Alan Shearer's Premier League scoring record after signing new Liverpool contract - with date given for setting new milestone

<p>Salah put an end to the long saga of uncertainty around his future by <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mohamed-salah-stays-liverpool-confirm-new-deal-egyptian-king-contract/blt625460e1eefc582d" target="_blank">signing on for another two years at Anfield</a>. The forward has been sensational for the Reds again this season, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mohamed-salah-premier-league-goat-contract-extension-liverpool-legend-overtake-thierry-henry-wayne-rooney/blt415a7959296d4890" target="_blank">topping the Premier League's goals and assists charts</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The 27 goals he has scored this term take his all-time tally in the English top-flight to 182, putting him just 78 short of the record holder Alan Shearer. To surpass that record, Salah may have to sign on for another year on Merseyside as calculations from <a href="https://www.grosvenorcasinos.com/sport" target="_blank"><em>Grosvenor Sport</em></a> say the Egypt star is on track to reach 260 strikes by the end of the 2027-28 campaign.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Even if the 32-year-old overtakes ex-England and Newcastle striker Shearer, he is expected to eventually see the record taken from him by Manchester City's Erling Haaland. The Norway international penned a new deal that keeps him tied to the club until 2034. By then, though, he will already be the record holder, with the study saying he is projected to end the 2030-31 season with 278 goals. </p>

WILL HAALAND SURPASS SALAH & SHEARER?

<p>Salah is on track to end the season with a second Premier League winners' medal, with Arne Slot's men sitting 11 points clear ahead of the weekend's meeting with West Ham.</p>
