Mohamed Salah becomes Liverpool's Premier League assist record-holder
Liverpool, May 24
Mohamed Salah has become Liverpool's record-holder for Premier League assists after moving past club legend Steven Gerrard during the Reds' 2025-26 season finale against Brentford at Anfield on Sunday.
The Liverpool No.11 provided the assist for Curtis Jones, taking his tally to 93 Premier League assists for the club and moving ahead of Gerrard's long-standing mark of 92.
The milestone came in what was his final appearance of the season, underlining his continued creative influence for the Merseyside club.
Salah's latest assist also places him joint-sixth on the Premier League's all-time assist list with 94 overall, equalling former Arsenal star Dennis Bergkamp, including one assist registered during his time at Chelsea.
The Egyptian forward, who has been one of Liverpool's most consistent performers since joining the club, continues to climb the Premier League record charts as he adds another landmark to his career achievements.
In March, Salah announced that he will leave the club after a memorable nine-year stint at the end of the 2025-26 season.
A statement issued by the club said, "Mohamed Salah is to bring the curtain down on his illustrious career with Liverpool FC at the end of the 2025-26 season. The forward has reached an agreement with the Reds that will see him close a remarkable nine-year chapter at Anfield."Salah expressed his wish to make this announcement to the supporters at the earliest possible opportunity to provide transparency about his future due to his respect and gratitude for them.
Signed from AS Roma in the summer of 2017, the number 11 has firmly established himself as one of the greatest players in Liverpool's history, helping the club to two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup and two League Cups, as well as an FA Community Shield.

As a Liverpool fan from India, I'm just amazed at how consistent Salah has been. 93 assists for the club is incredible! People talk about his goals, but his playmaking often goes underrated. Hope he goes out on a high note in his final season. YNWA!
Just want to point out—Bergkamp was an assist machine too. For Salah to equal him with 94 overall is special. But honestly, I wish the club had managed his farewell better. Why announce it in March and then let the whole season be a goodbye tour? A bit distracting for the team, no?
I'm from the US but I follow the Premier League. Salah's consistency is unreal. From Chelsea reject to Liverpool's assist king—that's a redemption story for the ages. Excited to see where he goes next. Maybe back to the Middle East or a new challenge?
From an Indian football fan's perspective, I admire how Salah handles himself off the pitch too—humble, hardworking, never in controversy. But on the pitch, he's pure fire. 🔥 93 assists 🅰️ plus all those goals? He'll be remembered as one of the Premier League's greatest ever wingers, no doubt.
Just a small correction—the article says 93 assists for Liverpool but 94 overall (including Chelsea). The stat is correct but also worth noting that Gerrard's 92 came mostly from midfield. Different roles but Salah has been world-class either way. His 2017-18 season was magical.
