The likes of Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard immediately come to mind when you think about powerful long-range shooters, while Dominik Szoboszlai is already showing he’s cut from that same cloth.
The Hungarian has an absolute rocket of a shot, and speaking on the Sky Sports Premier League YouTube channel, Mohamed Salah has claimed that he’s only ever seen one player with a shot as hard as Szobsozlai’s – Didier Drogba. Szoboszlai “Have you ever seen someone kick the ball as hard as Dom?” Salah was asked.
“Dom hits the ball unbelievable, maybe one, Drogba. Nobody knows how Drogba hit the ball, my god. I came to Chelsea and he came six months later and the way he hit the ball was insane. Dom is unbelievable,” Salah said. Incredible It’s been a while since we’ve seen Drogba playing Premier League football, but to compare Szoboszlai to the Ivorian is huge.
There have been some truly unbelievable long-range shooters in Premier League history.
