Jamie Carragher has named his signing of the season

Jamie Carragher believes that the best piece of summer business was done by his former club, Liverpool.

The Reds legend has looked beyond the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Alvaro Morata and Nemanja Matic in naming his signing of the season. Carragher has been most impressed by Mohamed Salah's performances since moving to Anfield from Roma for a fee of £36.9 million in June The 25-year-old has wasted no time in endearing himself to Liverpool supporters, with 12 goals in 17 games across all competitions for Jurgen Klopp's side. Even prior to Salah's brace against West Ham on Saturday evening, Carragher insisted that the Egyptian winger had enjoyed more success than any other summer signing. "Of all the transfers last summer, none has had more impact than Liverpool's Mohamed Salah," Carragher wrote in his Telegraph column. "Romelu [Lukaku] has also made an immediate impression at Manchester United - who have made a better start to this season - but Salah has only one goal fewer than the centre-forward. It is some goal rate. "Since Luis Suarez was sold to Barcelona in 2015, the most goals any Liverpool player has scored in a season is 14 (Philippe Coutinho in 2016/17). When I saw Salah score his first for the club at Watford on the opening day, I felt this was a player who would score 15 this season. I underestimated. He is on schedule to get 25. 'The Egyptian is more than a traditional winger. He is a wide striker with the ability to get into goalscoring positions every time he plays. "There has been plenty of criticism of Liverpool's recruitment in recent years - much of it deserved. But just as with the signing of Sadio Mane in 2016, they have spent very well in bringing Salah back to England after his disappointing spell at Chelsea. "Paying over £35 million seemed risky, but as was the case with Mane, Salah already looks to be worth more than he cost."
