Top of the Premier League scoring charts this season with 20 goals from 27 appearances, Mohamed Salah is slowly closing in on another Golden Boot. The Liverpool forward is currently seven goals clear of team-mate Diogo Jota and Son Heung-Min and, having previously won the accolade in 2017/18 and 2018/19, and looks set to make it a hat-trick with nine games left to play.
Yet it might not be the only end of season prize the Egyptian could get his hands on come May, with the 29-year-old also in the running for the Premier League Playmaker award. The Reds star currently lies second in the creator charts with 10 assists, despite only creating one goal since early-December.
Level with team-mate Andy Robertson in the rankings, only fellow colleague Trent Alexander-Arnold lies ahead of him, with the England international, who is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury, creating 11 league goals so far this season. Launched in 2017/18, Harry Kane is the current holder of the Playmaker award after completing a goalscorer and creator double last season, with Salah now hoping to follow in the Tottenham striker’s footsteps.
