The Liverpool star, who currently tops the scoring charts, revealed what he believed were the differences between himself and the Manchester City striker.

Speaking to Sky Germany, Salah expressed admiration for Haaland but pointed out the advantages of being a centre-forward, saying, “I respect Erling Haaland a lot. He is a striker, so his life is a bit easier. “For a winger to have such a record is quite difficult. Every winger can confirm that,”

Despite playing out wide, Salah has maintained an incredible scoring rate this season with 24 goals after 26 game weeks.

The Egyptian forward leads the race ahead of Haaland, who sits on 19 and is the current favourite to win the award while firing Liverpool to the title.

Salah’s consistency has kept him ahead of his rivals, and with only a few matches remaining, he is determined to secure his fourth Premier League Golden Boot.

Haaland, who dominated the scoring charts in his first two Premier League seasons, faces a tough task to catch Salah.

The Manchester City striker has been prolific since his arrival in England, but injuries and competition have made this season more challenging.

While Haaland remains a threat, Salah’s incredible scoring record this season has put him in pole position for the Golden Boot.

With the title race intensifying, every goal counts as Salah is not only chasing personal glory but also pushing Liverpool towards potential silverware, making this Golden Boot battle one of the most thrilling in recent memory.
