After today’s 3 – 1 win over Southampton and two more goals for Mohamed Salah in the Premier League for Liverpool, the Egyptian superstar has climbed up to joint 5th place on the top scorers list. At the top Newcastle legend Alan Shearer, as he has been retired since 2006, it is time for someone to take the top.
Only Mohamed Salah and Harry Kane (if he returns to the Premier League) have the chance to break Shearer’s record in many years.
With Salah sharing 5th place with Sergio Agüero, who is retired and it is only three points up on Andy Cole who has long since retired in 4th place, Salah is guaranteed to climb past before the season is over.
Only Harry Kane is above Mohamed Salah and still active.
Harry Kane, who is second on the list of all-time top scorers in the Premier League, is on the cards to return to the ball island in the summer. Bayern Munich have got another pet they want and then they need money. Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz will be in place “at all costs”.
Most people have always thought, probably including Harry Kane, that one day there will be a return to climb all the way to the top of the top scorers list. With Alan Shearer’s 260 goals and Harry Kane’s 213 goals, a maximum of two seasons are needed if the score is at the same pace as now.
The best thing would be for Mohamed Salah to decide to stay at Liverpool and for Harry Kane to return to the Premier League.
For those wondering, the only Norwegian on the top 50 list of all-time goalscorers is Ole Gunnar Solskjær who with his 91st goals is in 41st place.
Harry Kane’s future could take an unexpected turn this summer, as he has adapted to life in the Bundesliga. Now, there are intense rumours from Bild, among others, that Bayern Munich will be willing to part ways with the striker if a Premier League club pays his buyout clause, set at £67 million.
Of course, there is a lot of interest in a goalscorer of Harry Kane’s calibre. The England striker scored two of the goals as Bayern Munich won 3-2 over Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday in the Champions League.
Faced with this opportunity, several English teams have shown interest in repatriating the striker, making his return one of the great sagas in the transfer market.
Despite having a contract with the Bavarian team until 2027, his continuity in Germany is not guaranteed. His first season in the Bundesliga has been a personal success, with 31 goals and 10 assists in 35 games in all competitions. However, Bayern’s collective performance has raised doubts, leading to speculation about the striker’s stay in Munich.
Bayern Munich, willing to sell Kane
Tottenham, his former club, would be one of the main suitors to sign their all-time leading goalscorer. Still, they are not the only contenders in the race, as Arsenal and Manchester United are also reportedly considering buying his services. For Spurs, the return would mean a chance to bolster their attack with a player who knows the league inside out, while for the Gunners and Red Devils, it would be a prime option to improve their attack.
Although Bayern are not keen on releasing him at any price, the activation of the release clause could trigger one of the most striking transfers of the summer. Now the ball is in the court of English clubs, who will have to decide whether they are willing to make the financial effort to bring back one of the world’s best strikers.
