Club career

edit

Born in Valdeganga, Albacete, Castile-La Mancha, Salcedo finished his formation with Albacete Balompié, but moved abroad in the 2009 summer after signing with Belgian Pro League club R.E. Mouscron. On 1 August 2009 he made his professional debut, starting in a 2–1 away win over K.R.C. Genk,[2] but left in December due to unpaid wages.[3]

On 27 January 2010 free agent Salcedo returned to Spain, joining Real Valladolid B.[4] On 29 January of the following year he first appeared with the first team, playing the last 24 minutes in a 0–2 away loss against Villarreal CF B after Javi Jiménez was sent off.[5]

On 31 July 2012 Salcedo moved to Huracán Valencia CF, in Segunda División B.[6] However, he only appeared once in the league in the entire season, and subsequently joined fellow league side La Roda CF.[7]

Salcedo subsequently resumed his career in the lower leagues, representing La Hoya Lorca CF, Mérida AD, CD Guadalajara, CF Rayo Majadahonda and CP Villarrobledo.[8] With Guadalajara, he scored a last-minute equalizer in a 1–1 away draw against UD Almansa through a header,[9] and also achieved promotion to the second division with the Majariegos in 2018.
