Mohamed Salah earned a special reception at Anfield after reaching his 300th Premier League appearance for Liverpool during shocking 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
The milestone placed the Egyptian forward alongside some of the club’s most distinguished names.
Salah stepped onto the pitch as one of only a handful of players to reach their 300th game mark for Liverpool in the Premier League era.
Jamie Carragher, Steven Gerrard, Jordan Henderson and Sami Hyypiä previously set the benchmark for longevity and consistency in the modern era.
Liverpool highlighted the achievement with a message on their official channels that read, “Historic appearance for Mo… his 300th Premier League match for the Reds.”
The 33-year-old continues to shape his legacy at Anfield, where he has scored 250 goals in all competitions and remains in contention for a fourth Golden Boot.
His future continues to attract debate. Several Saudi Pro League clubs monitor the situation, and speculation persists over a possible move.
Liverpool, however, hold a firm position and appear willing to keep their star unless an exceptional offer arrives.
Former Liverpool goalkeeper David James shared his view on the ongoing discussion.
He said both the club and the player have benefitted from their long partnership and suggested that, should the numbers no longer align, a mutual decision may follow.
James also noted Salah’s remarkable fitness levels, pointing out that the forward has the physical condition to extend his career into his mid-thirties, much like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Liverpool continue to plan for the long term, and Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise has emerged as one potential successor.
For now, Salah remains central to Liverpool’s ambitions, and his 300-appearance landmark reinforces his place among the club’s modern greats.
