The unthinkable has happened at Anfield. For the first time in his legendary Premier League career, Mohamed Salah has gone nine consecutive games without a goal.
A player who once made goal-scoring look like a routine chore is now facing the longest dry spell of his life. As the title race heats up, Liverpool’s most reliable weapon has suddenly gone silent, leaving fans and analysts wondering: What has happened to the King?
The Numbers Behind the Slump
The statistics paint a stark picture of a superstar struggling to find his clinical edge in 2026:
Drought Duration: 9 Games (810+ minutes)
Last PL Goal: December 2025
Big Chances Missed: 7 during this run
Shot Conversion Rate: Dropped from 22% to a staggering 4% since January 1st.
The Context: Even during his most difficult periods under Jรผrgen Klopp or his early days at Chelsea, Salah never went more than six games without finding the net. This nine-game stretch is uncharted territory for the three-time Golden Boot winner.
The Silver Lining?
Despite the lack of goals, Salah hasn't been invisible. During this nine-game run, he has contributed 4 assists, proving that while his "finisher" software is buffering, his "playmaker" mode is still operational.
However, with Manchester City and Arsenal breathing down Liverpool's neck, the Reds need the 20-goal-a-season version of Salah to return—and fast.
