Scout report

Experienced headGoal-getting Attacking midfielder

Mohamed Salah is a 34-year-old attacking midfielder at Liverpool, enjoying a standout season — 7 goals and 7 assists in 27 appearances, a Season grade of 56, top 5% of Premier League attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 33.4, ranking 342nd of 376 in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (79.6% of available minutes). He brings 0.59 goal contributions per 90 (0.29 goals, 0.29 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Salah.

Judged on this season alone, Salah graded 56 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 6% of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League, on 7 goals and 7 assists in 27 appearances (0.587 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 100 → 56). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 33, 72nd of 73 of the 73 attacking midfielders in the Premier League. At 34 Salah is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 20 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Salah missed 8 games through injury (international duty, thigh, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

  • Final-third output. 0.59 goal contributions per 90 (0.29 goals, 0.29 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 97.9/100).

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 0.92 defensive actions per 90 for the position.

Outlook
