Many moons have passed since Mohamed Salah's ill-fated first spell in the Premier League. The current African Footballer of the year is regarded as one of the top players in the world nowadays.

After a successful spell in the Serie A for AS Roma, Mohamed Salah joined Liverpool for a then club-record fee of £36.9 million. He went on to have a glittering personal season, scoring a staggering 32 goals (a 38 game Premier League season record) for the golden boot.

He ended up being named the PFA Player's Player of the Year, PFA Fan's Player of the Year, FWA Footballer of the Year, and he also came 3rd in the FIFA Best Player award for 2018.

Last season wasn't as magical for him as the previous. But still, he ended up as the joint Premier League top scorer alongside his teammate Sadio Mane and Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. He also led Liverpool to a 6th Champions League gong.

Mohamed Salah will be undoubtedly in the race for the PL golden boot next year as he leads Liverpool's charge for the elusive Premier League trophy.
