Salah Becomes Highest African Scorer in Champions League History
Mohamed Salah has made history as the highest-scoring African player in the UEFA Champions League, with 45 goals. The 32-year-old Liverpool forward achieved this remarkable feat during Liverpool’s 3-0 win against Bologna on Wednesday, September 2, netting his 45th Champions League goal in the 75th minute.
Salah’s goal secured a crucial victory for Liverpool and cemented his place in football history, surpassing Ivory Coast’s Didier Drogba, who previously held the record with 44 goals, and Cameroon’s Samuel Eto’o, who sits in third with 35 goals.
In addition to this milestone, Salah has also set new records, becoming the first Liverpool player to score in five consecutive Champions League games at Anfield and the first to score and assist in nine Champions League matches for an English club.

Heritage Foundation Pushes for Release of Prince Harry’s U.S. Immigration Records
The Heritage Foundation has intensified efforts to release Prince Harry’s U.S. immigration records, asserting that his disclosures could have affected his entry eligibility.
After DHS denied their Freedom of Information request, a judge ruled in September to keep the files private—a decision now under appeal by Heritage.
Heritage spokesperson Nile Gardiner argued that revealing the records aligns with public interest, adding, “The rule of law should apply equally to everyone.” He also suggested that the Biden administration’s protection of Harry may end after the inauguration, with growing calls in Congress for transparency.
Tensions have persisted between Harry and former President Trump, who has openly criticized the prince and indicated he wouldn’t offer him protection if re-elected. Gardiner predicts a decision on the matter within a year.
