A look back at Jurgen Klopp's comments on Mohamed Salah following his arrival from Roma in 2017 highlights the extent of his transformation at Liverpool. In December of Salah's first season, after he had equalled Roger Hunt's club record of 23 goals before the turn of the year, Klopp was asked if he had exceeded his expectations.

He is on 255 goals from 435 games, putting him third in the club's all-time scoring chart, and will surely add to that tally before his departure at the end of the campaign.Jamie Carragher: Mohamed Salah ahead of Cristiano RonaldoSalah to leave - YOUR reaction🔴| Transfer Centre LIVE!Liverpool fixtures & scores | FREE Liverpool PL highlights▶️Got Sky?

His work ethic has facilitated remarkable consistency.Liverpool have fallen out of contention at the top of the Premier League at certain points over the last nine years but, until this season, Salah's individual output never dipped.Even in his weakest campaign for goals and assists, in 2020/21, his combined total of 27 ranked as the third-highest of any player in the division behind Kane and Bruno Fernandes. It appeared he would not get the send-off he deserved after the explosive fallout with Slot that followed the loss of his place in the team in the first half of the season.But Salah's reintegration after the Africa Cup of Nations changed that, giving him the chance to go out on a high, after nine years in which he has been in a league of his own, transforming Liverpool's fortunes and carving out a route to greatness.
