In what’s shaping up to be a historic Premier League season, Mohamed Salah has firmly established himself as the standout player, perhaps in the entire footballing world.

The Egyptian superstar is not just leading the Premier League in both goals and assists; he recently made league history by becoming the first player ever to reach double digits in both categories ahead of the crucial Boxing Day fixtures. This sizzling form has placed Liverpool in a fantastic competitive position as they head into 2025, and the club is expected to confirm a lucrative new contract for Salah before the end of this year.

Cody Gakpo, Salah's teammate at Liverpool, has expressed his astonishment at the remarkable performances of the seasoned forward this season. In an interview with Liverpool's official website, Gakpo could barely find the words to encapsulate Salah's influence on the pitch.

Salah's Impact Magnified

Gakpo said, “I don’t know what to say! It’s very special what we are all witnessing. The amount of goals he scores, coupled with the assists he provides, showcases a level of play that is truly exceptional. The way he positions other attacking players and midfielders like myself to be dangerous is remarkable.”

As Liverpool sits at the summit of the Premier League, sails smoothly through the UEFA Champions League, and eyes the League Cup semi-finals, Salah's contributions have been pivotal to their success. Gakpo highlighted the collective effort, noting, “We are very lucky to have him. He not only strives to elevate his own game but also motivates us to improve.”

Historic Milestones Ahead

Salah's tenure at Liverpool, since joining the club in 2017, has been nothing short of legendary. This season, however, could be his finest yet. The 32-year-old is on the cusp of achieving the Premier League Golden Boot and Playmaker accolades, a dual accomplishment that has only been achieved previously by Arsenal's iconic Thierry Henry.

Should Salah maintain his fitness and form, there's every chance he’ll lead Liverpool to glory in both the Premier League and the Champions League, solidifying his legacy as one of the club’s all-time greats.

Fans and pundits alike are wondering: Can Salah sustain this form, and will Liverpool's title aspirations be fulfilled? The stage is set for an exciting conclusion to the season, with every eye keenly watching the next chapters of Salah's incredible journey with the Reds.
