Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has been voted the greatest striker in Premier League history by fans, after topping an official poll organised across the league’s social media platforms.
The Egyptian international secured 40% of the total vote, finishing well ahead of a shortlist that included some of the competition’s most celebrated forwards.
The result places him firmly above several widely recognised all-time greats of English football.
Former Arsenal striker Thierry Henry finished in second place with 22% of the vote, maintaining his reputation as one of the league’s most admired attackers. Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney shared third place, each receiving 11%.
Despite his recent prolific scoring record, Manchester City forward Erling Haaland attracted just 2% of the vote, underlining the strength of competition across different eras of the Premier League.
The poll results, published by the league’s official account, highlight the enduring impact Salah has made since joining Liverpool FC in 2017. Since his arrival, he has consistently delivered goals, assists and match-winning performances.
Salah has played a key role in Liverpool’s success in recent years, helping the club secure major honours including the Premier League title and the UEFA Champions League. His performances have established him as one of the most influential players in the competition.
The vote reflects both his individual achievements and his consistency at the highest level. Over multiple seasons, Salah has maintained a high standard of performance, contributing significantly to his team’s attacking output.
His recognition in the fan poll further strengthens his standing among the Premier League’s elite. While comparisons across generations remain a subject of debate, the result suggests that supporters regard his contributions as among the most significant in the league’s history.
Salah’s place at the top of the poll comes ahead of a number of legendary names, reinforcing the scale of his impact in English football.
