The Egyptian is currently enduring the longest streak without scoring of his Liverpool career having gone without a goal since facing Bournemouth on February 9. Salah has not scored in any of the Reds’ last seven matches across all competitions since then and has appeared increasingly keen to end his drought, passing up several opportunities to set up team-mates to go for goal himself of late. The 26-year-old has lacked the kind of clinical composure he showed in the final third last season, when he notched 44 strikes across all competitions including 32 in the Premier League. The Golden Boot winner - who trails Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero by one goal in the race to be top scorer this term - had the chance to become the fastest player in Premier League history to 50 goals with one club before his barren run, having only scored once in his last 10 games.
