Mohamed Salah is rightfully regarded as one of the best attackers in the world, with the Liverpool winger showing no sign of slowing down.

Martin Keown noted that Salah means business this season with Liverpool, with the forward already on nine goals and nine assists in all competitions for the Reds in just 16 games as the Anfield side sit top of the Premier League and UEFA Champions League league phase.

Although Salah is attracting interest from FC Barcelona with the forward’s contract due to expire at the end of this season, the Egyptian international is showing with Liverpool why he will be a difference-maker in Arne Slot’s hunt for silverware.

And Fulham captain Tom Cairney has shared what makes Salah so hard to play against.

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah ‘a constant threat’ whoever he faces

Speaking to Sky Sports, the Premier League midfielder noted how Salah is ‘a constant threat’ regardless of who he is facing off against or how fresh the Liverpool winger is feeling in that particular game situation.

Liverpool have been saved multiple times already this season by Salah’s world-class individual quality, and the likes of Cairney believe the 32-year-old attacker is simply too good to be taken care of by one player.

Cairney said when asked what it’s like to face Salah for Fulham: “It’s like the constant threat. You know what he wants to do, but you can’t stop it. As soon as he cuts on the left foot, you expect what’s to come.

“There are not many people that shoot where you expect the keeper to have to make a save. When Harry Kane shoots, you expect it to be on target. And he is another one. He is a constant threat throughout the game.”

Salah will want to end his Liverpool career on a massive high

Salah is more than likely leaving Liverpool at the end of this season, with the attacker’s contract coming to an end after eight incredible seasons with the Reds where the winger made history.

And with Salah in fantastic form, the 32-year-old will want to end his career on Anfield with a massive high, with the Premier League and Champions League realistic achievements for Liverpool.

Indeed, Salah is looking sharp this season after just a few months, and the forward will be set on winning everything there is in his final season with Liverpool, who will want to give the Egyptian the perfect send off.
