Bartosz Salamon (Polish pronunciation: [ˈbartɔʂ saˈlamɔn], born 1 May 1991) is a Polish footballer who plays as a defender for Serie A club Sampdoria, on loan from Milan.

Club career

Brescia and loan to Foggia

Salamon made his Serie B debut on 3 May 2008 just two days after his 17th birthday, coming off the bench in the 77th minute of the win against Modena. On 17 January 2009 he appeared in Brescia's starting eleven for the first time, playing the full 90 minutes of the 4–0 win versus Pisa. On 9 August, he scored his first goal for Brescia in a 1–0 win over Ravenna in Coppa Italia. In July 2010, it was announced he would play on loan at U.S. Foggia in Lega Pro Prima Divisione, the third tier of Italian football.[1] He returned to Brescia, in Serie B, for the 2011–12 season. In 2012–13, Brescia decided to play him mainly in central defense.[2]

Milan

On 31 January 2013, Salamon joined Milan, signing a contract until 2017, for an undisclosed fee.[3]

U.C. Sampdoria

In 11 July 2013, Salamon was transferred to Sampdoria on loan, in an exchange for Andrea Poli, who signed also on loan for Milan.[4] The deal also saw both players being co-owned between the two clubs + Milan paying an undisclosed amount.[5]

International career

Salamon has represented Poland at U-16, U-17, U-18, U-19, U-20 and U-21 levels. In September 2010, he received his first callup to the senior Poland national football team, for the matches against the United States and Ecuador.
