The two forwards on this list have had contrasting fortunes since their move to the Premier League.
Mohamed Salah turned out to be a bargain for Liverpool since his move in 2017. The Egyptian enjoyed a record-breaking season with the Reds scoring 44 times in all competitions.
Salah scored 32 goals in his debut Premier League season with Liverpool which is the most goals any player has scored in a 38-game Premier League season.
Salah’s record for Roma was also quite impressive. In 83 games, he scored 34 goals for the club from the Italian capital.

Lamela, on the other hand, has had an injury-ridden spell with Spurs after joining them in 2013. He has so far played 149 games for the North London club in five seasons and scored 24 goals.
While he was at Roma, he scored 21 goals in 67 games across two seasons. In his second and final season with the club, he scored 15 goals and assisted five more in 36 games. This is what prompted Spurs to sign him for a then club record £25.8 million, plus up to £4.2 million in bonus payment.
