Mo Salah-led Liverpool forwards hit impressive goal milestones

Mohamed Salah and his Liverpool teammates have broken goal records this season across Europe.

Liverpool's fearsome attack led by African superstar Mohamed Salah is breaking records this season, becoming the first team in Europe's top five leagues to have five players score 10+ goals across all competitions.

Pulse Sports Nigeria reports that the Liverpool team reached the landmark after another goal-fest against promoted side Luton Town at Anfield in the Premier League on Wednesday night.

Salah, Liverpool’s attack shine

Salah, Diogo Jota, Darwin Núñez, Cody Gakpo, and Luis Díaz have all hit double figures, highlighting the incredible depth and potency of Liverpool's frontline.

While Salah is the top scorer with 19 goals, he is followed by the quartet of Jota (14), Nunez (13), Gakpo (11) and Diaz (10) in the goals chart.

The Reds have also become the first side from England, Spain, Italy, Germany or France to reach 100 goals in all competitions this campaign - further proof of their ruthlessness in front of goal as Liverpool look to give Jurgen Klopp a perfect send-forth.

Egypt’s superstar Salah is on course for another prolific season at Anfield, with summer signings Núñez and Gakpo both settling in seamlessly. Meanwhile, Jota and Díaz continue providing a constant threat despite battling injuries.

Manager Klopp will be delighted with how his attacking options have stepped up to fill the void left by Sadio Mane. The numbers speak for themselves - Liverpool possess firepower few can match.

With the likes of young starlet Harvey Elliott, who celebrated his 100 appearances for the club with a stunning goal in the 4-1 thrashing of the Hatters, also chipping in, Liverpool have impressive strength in depth up front.

Their embarrassment of riches in attack is a major factor behind their ongoing fight for silverware on four fronts.

These record-setting goalscoring feats underline why Liverpool remain one of the most fearsome offensive units in world football. If they maintain this sensational form, more milestones could follow this season.
