Liverpool's top goalscorers of all time: Where does Mohamed Salah rank after goal in Wolverhampton Wanderers FA Cup win?

As the most trophy-laden club in the storied history of English football, it comes as no surprise that Liverpool has been the home of some of the greatest goalscorers to ever grace the nation's shores.

In decades past, fans were privileged to see the likes of Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush run out at Anfield, players upon which the Reds' foundation as one of the biggest clubs in the world was built.

In the modern era, Mohamed Salah leads the way for Liverpool, and the Egyptian - who holds the record for the most Premier League goal contributions for a single club - continues to add to his tally.

Arne Slot's side have not enjoyed their strongest campaign in 2025-26, and neither has Salah, though the 33-year-old winger has still managed to produce nine goals and eight assists so far, a commendable tally that outmatches the likes of Bukayo Saka and Cole Palmer this term.

After Salah's goal in the Reds' 3-1 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup's fifth round on Friday, read on as Sports Mole runs down the top 10 goalscorers in the history of Liverpool football club.
