Liverpool's top goalscorers of all time as Mohamed Salah overtakes Billy Liddell with Tottenham brace

6 hours ago 1

Sports Mole runs through Liverpool's top 10 goalscorers of all time, including the likes of Mohamed Salah, Kenny Dalglish and Ian Rush.

Out of all the players to have made a net ripple in a Liverpool jersey, none can lay a glove on Ian Rush, whose astronomical record of 346 goals should not be broken anytime soon.

However, several other celebrated athletes have etched their name into Merseyside folklore down the years, from Premier League stars to those who lit up the Second Division.

Here, Sports Mole provides the list of Liverpool's 10 highest goalscorers of all time.
