Mohamed Salah wins Premier League Player of the Month for October

The Reds have picked up seven points from a possible nine in three Premier League games last month, with Salah starring.

Jurgen Klopp's side started the month with a 2-2 draw against Brighton, with Salah scoring a quickfire double just before half-time at the Amex.

After the October international break, Liverpool beat Everton 2-0 at Anfield in the first Merseyside derby of the season. Salah capped off a fine October with the winner, and has now won the Premier League Player of the Month award for the fifth time in his career.

Despite being linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League during the summer transfer window, Salah has not let speculation about his future affect his form. In 16 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions this season, he has scored 10 goals and provided four assists.

Salah is second in the Premier League's top scorers list with eight goals, level with Tottenham captain Son Heung-min, while reigning Golden Boot winner Erling Haaland is ahead with 11 goals.

Liverpool are third in the Premier League table and could even go top after the weekend if the results go their way. They host Brentford at Anfield on Sunday.
