Salah is a Mochine

KOP BOSS SLOT SAYS: STRIKER IS A FREAK OF NATURE AT HIS AGE... HE CAN CONTINUE TO REIGN WHEN HE'S 35

ARNE SLOT insists Mohamed Salah is a freak of nature who will still be a master maker and taker of goals at the age of 35.

Salah finally signed a contract extension on Friday that will keep him at Anfield until the summer of 2027 after a year of brinkmanship with the champions-elect.

The Egypt forward will celebrate his 33rd birthday in June and his new £350,000-a-week deal gives him the opportunity to leave an even bigger legacy.

Salah is joint-fifth with Sergio Aguero in the all-time Premier League goalscoring charts, with 184 and will eclipse Harry Kane, Wayne Rooney and Andy Cole to go second behind 260-goal Alan Shearer if he continues to be as prolific.

He is also in 10th place in the all-time list of assists on 86 and needs another 33 to go ahead of Kevin De Bruyne to move into second place behind runaway leader Ryan Giggs.
