Liverpool star Mohamed Salah continues to etch his name deeper into Premier League history after matching Chelsea legend Frank Lampard’s remarkable record of 279 goal involvements.

The Egyptian forward reached the milestone after finding the back of the net in Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Aston Villa on Sunday — a result that not only strengthened Liverpool’s title push but also reaffirmed Salah’s legendary status in English football.

With 190 goals and 89 assists, Salah now stands joint-third on the Premier League’s all-time list for goal involvements, alongside Lampard, who recorded 177 goals and 102 assists during his glittering career.

Ahead of the pair are only two of the league’s most iconic names — Alan Shearer, with 324 goal involvements, and Wayne Rooney, who sits second with 311. Completing the top five is Manchester United’s Ryan Giggs, with 271.

Premier League All-Time Goal Involvements:

Alan Shearer – 324 (260 goals, 64 assists)
Wayne Rooney – 311 (208 goals, 103 assists)
Frank Lampard – 279 (177 goals, 102 assists)
Mohamed Salah – 279 (190 goals, 89 assists)
Ryan Giggs – 271 (109 goals, 162 assists)

Opinion — Salah’s Greatness Is Beyond Numbers

Mohamed Salah’s achievement is more than a statistical milestone — it’s a statement of consistency, class, and longevity. In a league as competitive as the Premier League, maintaining such standards season after season is a rare feat.

What makes Salah’s journey particularly remarkable is how quickly he’s climbed the ranks. Unlike Lampard, Rooney, or Shearer — all of whom played over a decade in the league — Salah only joined Liverpool in 2017 and has already reached this level in far fewer seasons.

His record speaks of more than talent; it reflects an unyielding work ethic and a hunger to prove doubters wrong. From being written off during his early Chelsea days to becoming Liverpool’s talisman and Africa’s pride, Salah’s story remains one of football’s greatest comeback tales.

With the Egyptian King still in his prime, it’s only a matter of time before he overtakes both Lampard and Rooney — and perhaps even challenges Shearer’s long-standing record.

For Liverpool fans, this is not just about history — it’s about witnessing greatness unfold every weekend. And for the Premier League, Salah’s brilliance is a reminder that legends aren’t just born; they’re built through resilience, reinvention, and relentless drive.
