Liverpool FC news: Jurgen Klopp believes Mohamed Salah can still improve as Egyptian breaks goalscoring record

Jurgen Klopp hailed the "absolutely fantastic" Mohamed Salah after the Liverpool forward set a new Premier League goalscoring record during Liverpool's 4-0 win over Brighton.

Salah opened the scoring and in doing so netted his 32nd in the league of the 2017/18 campaign, which is the best haul by a player in a 38-game season, eclipsing the tally of 31 set by Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez in past seasons.

His 44th goal in all competitions this term came on the day it was announced the 25-year-old Egypt international, signed last summer from Roma, had added the Premier League's Player of the Year award to his PFA and FWA gongs.
