Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has achieved a negative record dating back to 2012, in light of a bad period that the Egyptian and the club itself have been suffering recently under the leadership of coach Arne Slott.
Salah returned to Liverpool last week after participating with the Egyptian national team in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, where the Pharaohs failed to win the title and lost the third-place match against Nigeria on penalties.
Since his return, Salah started as a key player in Liverpool's 3-0 Champions League win over Marseille, but the Reds then suffered a painful 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth in the Premier League.
The global network "Goal" stated that Liverpool has thus lost seven of the last eight matches in which Mohamed Salah started in the English Premier League, thus equaling a bad record achieved by Dirk Kuyt during the Reds' struggles in 2012.
She explained that Liverpool's loss to Bournemouth pushed Mohamed Salah to the wrong part of the history books after his name had been immortalized in gold in the bright parts of it.
Mohamed Salah has started 8 recent Premier League matches, which are, in order: Crystal Palace, Chelsea, Manchester United, Brentford, Aston Villa, Manchester City, Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth.
Liverpool lost all of the aforementioned matches except for their game against Aston Villa, where they won 2-0, with Mohamed Salah scoring his last goal in the English Premier League this season so far.
Salah equaled the unwanted record set by Dirk Kuyt between February and May 2012 under coach Kenny Dalglish, finishing the season in eighth place before leaving that summer for Fenerbahce.
Liverpool fans fear a repeat of Dirk Kuyt's fate with Mohamed Salah, as the latter is linked with a possible departure from Anfield next summer.
