Mohamed Salah will leave Liverpool at the end of the current campaign after nine seasons that reshaped the club’s modern history. These are the five best seasons of Salah’s Anfield career, ranked by individual output, silverware and his influence on Liverpool’s biggest moments.

Salah arrived from Chelsea in 2017 and quickly became one of the defining players of the Premier League era. Across title races, cup runs and European nights, Liverpool repeatedly leaned on his goals, assists and consistency.

5. 2019–20 — Premier League Title and Three Trophies

2019–20 — Premier League Title and Three Trophies

Mohamed Salah’s 2019–20 season delivered 23 goals and 13 assists across 48 matches as Liverpool won the Premier League, FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup. That campaign ended the club’s long wait for a league title and confirmed Salah’s central role in one of Liverpool’s most dominant modern sides.

Liverpool won 26 of their first 27 Premier League matches before the March 2020 shutdown, and Salah scored 19 league goals to lead that charge. His goal in the 2–0 Anfield win over Manchester United, finished after Alisson’s long pass, became one of the defining images of Liverpool’s run to the title. The numbers were strong, but the weight of the occasion is what keeps this season in the top five.

Mohamed Salah produced 31 goals and 15 assists in 51 appearances during a season in which Liverpool won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup. The campaign also included a Champions League final and a title race that went to the final day, placing Salah at the center of one of the busiest and most demanding years of the Jürgen Klopp era.

Salah finished as Liverpool’s top scorer in the Premier League and across all competitions. His most memorable stretch came in October, when he scored against Manchester City, followed it with another standout goal against Watford, and then hit a hat trick in the 5–0 win at Old Trafford. Liverpool fell short of the two biggest prizes, but Salah’s individual level across four competitions was exceptional.

3. 2018–19 — Champions League Glory and European Redemption

2018–19 — Champions League Glory and European Redemption

Mohamed Salah recorded 27 goals and 10 assists in 52 matches in 2018–19, the season Liverpool won the Champions League. It was not his most explosive campaign statistically, but it was one of the most important in terms of team achievement and his standing within a side that had become one of Europe’s strongest.

Liverpool collected 97 points in the Premier League but still missed out on the title. In Europe, Salah helped carry the club to Madrid and scored in the final against Tottenham Hotspur. He also shared the Premier League Golden Boot with Sadio Mané and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. This was the season that turned elite domestic output into lasting continental status.

2. 2017–18 — A Record-Breaking Debut at Anfield

Mohamed Salah’s first Liverpool season remains one of the greatest debut campaigns in Premier League history. He finished with 44 goals and 14 assists in 52 matches, including 32 league goals, which set a competition record at the time.

Salah scored in volume and did so across every stage of the season. There was a four-goal performance against Watford, major contributions in the Champions League run to the final, and a series of memorable strikes that quickly defined his reputation at Liverpool. The team ended the season without silverware, which is the main reason this year sits second rather than first, but as an arrival statement it was extraordinary.

1. 2024–25 — Salah at His Complete Peak

Mohamed Salah’s best Liverpool season came in 2024–25, when he delivered 34 goals and 23 assists in 52 appearances and drove Liverpool to the Premier League title in Arne Slot’s first year. This was not simply a goalscoring campaign. It was the fullest version of Salah as scorer, creator and decisive attacking reference point.

By Christmas, Salah had failed to score in only four Premier League matches, and he went on to finish as the division’s Golden Boot winner. He also became the first player in Premier League history to win the Golden Boot and Playmaker awards in the same season. Liverpool also received key contributions from him in other competitions, including three Champions League goals and two more on the way to the Carabao Cup final. In terms of all-round attacking influence, no Salah season matched it.

Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool legacy was built on far more than one great year. But when his nine seasons at Anfield are measured for output, silverware and defining importance, the 2024–25 campaign stands above the rest, with his 2017–18 debut season close behind. Together, those two years frame the story of a player who arrived as a risk and leaves as one of Liverpool’s modern greats.
