Mohamed Salah has become the latest player to enter the Premier League’s illustrious 100-goal club after he netted a first-half finish against Leeds at Elland Road.

The Egypt international, a continued history-maker during his time with the Reds, has brought up another landmark achievement after striking early for Jurgen Klopp’s visitors on Sunday.

It is the latest milestone smashed by the 29-year-old, who joins the rarefied company of further Premier League legends in notching up triple figures in the English top flight.

How did Salah reach the landmark?

Salah had moved to 99 Premier League goals prior to the international break, netting a penalty in the Reds’ ill-tempered draw against his former club Chelsea.

And it took him little time to bring up a century of Premier League finishes for the Reds, finding the back of the net with a well-placed finish in the 20th minute.

From pressure sustained out of a corner, he was at close range inside the penalty area to meet Trent Alexander-Arnold’s low cross from the right flank, with a flick to push it past Illan Meslier.

What was said?

After the match, which ended with a 3-0 win for his team, Klopp told Sky Sports: “Mo’s record is crazy.

“He is still hungry and I don’t know how many records he can break.

“Since he joined us he has been the perfect player – a top-class player.”

Salah joins rich group of superstars

In notching an early blow against Marcelo Bielsa’s Whites, the striker also elevated himself into a group of fine players, becoming the fifth-fastest to reach such a tally in Premier League history.

Only former Blackburn and Newcastle legend Alan Shearer, Tottenham’s Harry Kane, ex-Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero and Arsenal hero Thierry Henry managed the feat in fewer games.

Salah becomes the 30th player to hit the magic number – though he still has to double his haul to get near Wayne Rooney, while others to hit the mark include Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku and Leicester’s Jamie Vardy.
