While fans worry about his form, a new historic number in the records of the EPL cements Salah's legacy
Since arriving at Anfield in 2017 Mohamed Salah has rewritten countless records from goal scoring charts to individual accolades.
But new report from Transfermarkt highlights another remarkable milestone: no player in Premier League history has ever seen bigger single season rise in market value than Salah.
According to the football data site, Salah’s value skyrocketed by €70 million in May 2018 jumping from €80m to €150m a record breaking surge that no other player in England’s top flight has matched before or since.

“It was the steepest valuation rise in Premier League history, Salah’s transformation into world class forward reshaped the landscape of English football”

While no one has matched Salah’s €70m leap , a handful of stars have come close. 4 player share second place with €40 million rise:
Salah even appears twice in top 5. His second largest jump €40m to €80m came just five month into his Liverpool career in Jan 2018.
Further down the list, Sadio Mane also features with €35m leap (from €85m to €120m in Jun 2019) highlighting Liverpool’s era of exceptional talent development under Jurgen Klopp.
