However, it is worth noting that both the English duo set that achievement in a 42-game season and not over 38 games as Salah did.
A perfect end to an incredible season.

Johnson proving doubters wrong at Spurs
Brennan Johnson scored 18 goals for Tottenham last season and two for Wales [Getty Images] Wales forward Brennan Johnson has "proved people wrong" with his performances for Tottenham, says club and country teammate Ben Davies. Johnson capped an impressive season by scoring the Europa League final winner against Manchester United last month to earn Spurs their first trophy since 2008. Advertisement The goal was Johnson's 20th of the campaign for club and country, a goal-scoring tally which Davies says is a fitting riposte to criticism the forward received in the early stages of his Spurs career following a £45m move from Nottingham Forest. "Brennan's shown this year that he's a top, top player and proven a lot of people wrong," said Davies, who's preparing for Wales' June World Cup qualifiers. Johnson struggled for consistency when he first moved to north London, scoring just five goals for Spurs in 2023-24, prompting criticism from fans on social media that even led the player to deactivate his Instagram account. But Davies believes the 24-year-old's form in 2024-25 - which included scoring in seven successive games for club and country at one point - proves he does have the calibre to thrive at Spurs. Advertisement Similarly, Davies believes Johnson can re-produce his club form on the international stage, having scored just five Wales goals since making his senior debut in 2020, and struggled at times to live up to predictions he could become the country's key player following Gareth Bale's retirement. "I hope so," said Davies when asked if Wales fans will now see the best of Johnson in a red shirt. "We've got full confidence in him in this Wales squad that he can replicate his form from his club here. "He works hard, he trains hard, we love having him round the place, and I feel like we've got the best Brennan we can at the moment." Advertisement Davies, who along with Johnson is preparing for Wales' World Cup qualifiers against Liechtenstein on 6 June and Belgium three days later, says there's "no update" on his future at Spurs with his current contract expiring at the end of June. The 32-year-old played a prominent role in Spurs' run to the Europa League final, but he was an unused substitute in Bilbao as Johnson stole the limelight to end Spurs' 17-year wait for a trophy. "It was obviously a great feeling (to win the trophy)," said Davies. "It's always a huge honour to win anything, but it's a tournament I played a lot of games in and it was really nice to get over the line. Advertisement "We had a couple of days celebrating before we had another (Premier League) game. But that's football - you just keep going on that merry-go-round."

Photos: Barcelona & Real Madrid youngsters arrive for international duty
Up-and-coming talents from La Liga's two biggest clubs on Saturday linked up with their teammates at international level in Spain. The pair in question? Lamine Yamal, and Dean Huijsen. Wide-man Lamine is of course fresh off a spectacular individual campaign on the books of Barcelona, with a haul of 43 direct goal contributions enough to earn the 17-year-old an expected call-up to Luis de la Fuente's latest squad. Advertisement Lamine, in turn, was spotted arriving at La Roja's training camp this afternoon: And joining the Blaugrana starlet, as alluded to above, was a new member of the defensive ranks at arch rivals Real Madrid. Dean Huijsen has of course taken his place front and centre in the Spanish media headlines over recent weeks, after sealing a move back to his home country with Xabi Alonso's Blancos. The 20-year-old, too, shone bright across the 2024/25 campaign, on the books of Premier League outfit Bournemouth. And after being rewarded with a fresh senior call by his country, Huijsen, too, on Saturday made his way to the Spanish national team's camp: Conor Laird – GSFN

Official: Barcelona & Real Madrid miss out as Málaga star heads to England
Official: Barcelona & Real Madrid miss out as Málaga star heads to England Spanish football's two leading clubs have officially missed out on the signature of one of the country's most highly-regarded young talents. The player in question? Antonio 'Antoñito' Cordero. Antoñito, for his part, is an 18-year-old striker, who has long been considered a potential star in the making. Advertisement The starlet was the subject of intense interest on the part of Barcelona last summer, with the Camp Nou hierarchy having gone as far as to table an offer for his services. In the end, as much was rebuffed by Málaga, determined to secure what they felt was market value in return for their crown jewel. Real Madrid, meanwhile, have also long been credited with a keen interest in Antoñito, whose contract terms with Málaga are due to expire at the end of the month. As alluded to above, though, in the end, the lure of Premier League football has proven too much for the attacker to turn down. As per a statement across the website and social media platforms of Eddie Howe's Newcastle United on Thursday: Advertisement 'We are delighted to announce the signing of Antonio Cordero who'll join on 1 July following the expiry of his contract with Málaga.'
