Mohamed Salah will be looking to equal records set by Ruud van Nistelrooy and Thierry Henry when his Liverpool side lock horns with Real Madrid in the Champions League final on Saturday night.

Mohamed Salah will be looking to equal records set by Ruud van Nistelrooy and Thierry Henry when his Liverpool side lock horns with Real Madrid in the Champions League final on Saturday night.

The 30-year-old has enjoyed another stellar campaign in front of goal, finding the net 31 times in 50 appearances for the Reds across all competitions in 2021-22.

Eight of those strikes have been in this season's Champions League, which has taken his goal tally in the competition to 33 under head coach Jurgen Klopp.

There are currently only three players in Champions League history who have scored more while playing under a single manager; Lionel Messi tops the list with 43 strikes under former Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola, while Van Nistelrooy – under former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson – and Henry – under former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger – are joint-second in the standings with 35 goals each.

A brace for Salah at the Stade de France on Saturday would see the Egyptian draw level with both Van Nistelrooy and Henry, while a memorable hat-trick in the final would move him into outright second place on the list.

Salah picked up the Premier League Golden Boot award, along with Tottenham Hotspur's Son Heung-min, as well as the Playmaker award after finishing the top-flight campaign with 23 goals and 13 assists.
