Liverpool all-time top scorers: Where does Mohamed Salah rank among Reds players with most goals?
Mohamed Salah has established himself as one of the modern greats at Liverpool during his time at Anfield.
The Egypt star, signed in 2017 from Serie A side Roma, has proved an attacking revelation on Merseyside, inspiring the Reds to glory in every domestic trophy, along with the 2019 UEFA Champions League.
Although Erling Haaland broke Salah’s record for the most goals scored in a 38-game Premier League campaign in 2022/23, the 33-year-old equalled the single-season record for goal involvements in Liverpool’s 2024/25 campaign, when he weighed in with 29 goals and 18 assists.
But in March 2026, Salah announced he would leave Anfield at the end of the season.
The Sporting News looks at Salah’s record in front of goal and how he compares to former Liverpool players.

Liverpool all-time top scorers
Salah overtook club legend Robbie Fowler on the leader board for most Liverpool goals and drew level with revered former captain Steven Gerrard by scoring against Brentford on May 6, 2023. In the process, he became only the eighth Liverpool player in history to score at least 100 goals at Anfield, and the first to score in nine consecutive home matches.
Salah then went beyond Gerrard’s mark and moved to 194 goals by scoring twice against Everton in October 2023. That, December, Salah became just the fifth Reds player to reach 200 goals in all competitions when he fired home the equaliser against Crystal Palace.
He is is set to depart in third place on the all-time Liverpool list, while being the leading non-UK goal-scorer in Premier League history.

Who is Liverpool’s record goal scorer?
Even if Salah had decided to stay at Liverpool a little longer, his chances of overtaking their top goal-scorer in history were slim to none.
Ian Rush scored 346 goals for the Reds between 1980 and 1996. In that time, he spent one season in Italy with Juventus before returning to Merseyside because his style appeared to better suit English football.
The Wales international wore the No. 9 shirt and partnered Kenny Dalglish in the Liverpool attack. Rush won five league titles and two European Cups for the club, finishing as top scorer for the club in eight separate seasons.
