Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah joined Cairo-based franchise El Mokawloon’s youth team at age 14 and advanced to the senior team in 2010. He signed with Swiss club FC Basel in 2012, and also played for English club Chelsea FC and Italian teams Fiorentina and AS Roma from 2014 to 2017. He joined English club Liverpool FC in July 2017 and scored 32 goals in 38 matches during the 2017–18 Premier League season, also winning the Player of the Season award. He has won the Golden Boot, an award given to the Premier League’s leading goal scorer in a season, multiple times while playing for Liverpool FC. Salah, who plays international football for Egypt, was instrumental in securing the country’s qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, a feat the team hadn’t achieved since 1990.
