Mohamed Salah scored three goals and assisted two more in five games for Liverpool in August, earning the Reds’ Player of the Month award.
The Egyptian has made a seamless transition into life on Merseyside, following his £36.9 million move from AS Roma in June.
Having enjoyed a productive pre-season that saw him find the back of the net every 79.3 minutes on average, Salah has kept up his momentum into the 2017/18 campaign.
Scoring and assisting in the Reds’ season opener away to Watford, Salah has also netted against Arsenal and Hoffenheim, setting up Daniel Sturridge in the 4-0 win over the Gunners, too.
As a result, the 25-year-old has been named Liverpool’s Player of the Month for August, with the club showcasing his highlights from the month on YouTube.
Salah also scored in his second appearance for Egypt in the September international break, sealing a 1-0 win over Uganda before heading back to England on Wednesday.
He is likely to start in Saturday’s away clash with Man City, as part of Jurgen Klopp‘s new-look forward line alongside Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.
Following a landmark August, Salah will be looking to continue his fine run of form into September.
And few would bet against the former Chelsea winger to keep scoring, with Liverpool set to face Sevilla, Burnley, Leicester City and Spartak Moscow later in the month.
