Mohamed Salah Leads Liverpool to 20th Title
With this title win, Liverpool have equalled the record for the most top-flight league titles, and Arne Slot has made history as the first manager to win the championship in his debut season. Mohamed Salah's impressive form has been a key factor in the team's success, and his contract extension is a major boost for the club.
Mohamed Salah has surpassed Sergio Aguero as the Premier League's top-scoring foreign player, scoring his 185th goal against Tottenham Hotspur, as Liverpool sealed their 20th English top-flight championship with a 5-1 win at Anfield.
The Egyptian forward has been instrumental in the team's success, scoring 28 league goals this season, and has praised the team's ability to adapt under new manager Arne Slot. Salah believes the title win is more special without Jurgen Klopp and several key players, including Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, and has described the victory as "way better, 100%".
Arne Slot becomes the first man in Liverpool's history to win the championship in his debut season, following in the footsteps of José Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, and Manuel Pellegrini. The team has been on a 26-match unbeaten run in the Premier League, lasting almost seven months, since a home defeat by Nottingham Forest in the fourth game.
Salah has signed a two-year contract extension and has made 297 top-flight appearances for Liverpool, with almost all goals scored for the club. He has praised Slot's honesty and ability to listen to his players' ideas, and believes the Dutch manager's tactics have allowed him to focus on his attacking game, resulting in impressive stats.
The team will lift the trophy after hosting Crystal Palace on the final day of the season, and will stage a trophy parade in the city on 26 May. Winning the title with the fans is "special" and "incredible", according to Salah, who has been the driving force behind the title success.
