The name Mohamed Salah may immediately come to mind when talking about the top scorer among Arabs in European football this season, in light of the distinguished season that the Egyptian is enjoying with Liverpool.
But in reality, there is a player who has succeeded in surpassing the 31-year-old and is currently the top scorer for Arabs on the Old Continent.
This player is Moroccan Ayoub El Kaabi, who is active with the Greek Olympiacos, and is experiencing one of the best seasons of his career ever, and this is translated into the language of numbers.
Al-Kaabi has so far succeeded in scoring 25 goals in 34 matches he played with Olympiacos in all tournaments, while Salah has only scored 22 goals with the Reds.
The 30-year-old Kaabi is the eighth best scorer this season on the European continent, and the lead is still in the hands of Kylian Mbappe, who has 38 goals in all tournaments with Paris Saint-Germain.
Perhaps the competition between Al-Kaabi and Salah will intensify in the coming period with the entry of the end-of-season period filled with matches, and without a doubt, the Egyptian Pharaoh wants to score in every match.
It remains to be noted that El Kaabi is a famous scorer, as he scored 120 goals in his long career that included Racing Club Casablanca, RS Burkan, Hebei of China, Wydad, Hatayspor, Al Sadd, and finally Olympiacos.
Al-Kaabi wore the Moroccan national team shirt in 44 international matches, during which he was able to score 22 goals.
