Career

Salcedo was the top scorer of the 2005 Copa Libertadores playing for Paraguayan side Cerro Porteño. He scored nine goals in the competition. The striker then played for FC Tokyo of Japan, but was loaned in the second half of 2006 to Newell's Old Boys of Argentina, after having problems with his coach Alexandre Gallo at FC Tokyo. Salcedo was then loaned to Mexican side Chiapas for the 2007 Clausura, but returned to Newell's Old Boys for the start of the 2007–08 season. After scoring nine goals during the 2008 Clausura (including the winning goal against Rosario Central in the Rosario derby), he joined River Plate by request of coach Diego Simeone.[5]

After the departure of Simeone and River finishing in the last place of the 2008 Apertura, Salcedo returned to Newell's for the 2009 Clausura tournament. On 7 August 2009, Lanús signed the Paraguayan striker on a joint-ownership deal.[6]

After a short spell in Argentinos Juniors he returned to Cerro Porteño. Salcedo was considered by Hércules to be David Trezeguet's replacement following the 2010/11 season. Salcedo was recommended by national team colleague, Nelson Haedo Valdez, who at the time was playing at Hercules.[7]

On 5 August 2013, Santiago signed for Club Atlético Banfield on loan from Cerro Porteño,[1] competing in Primera B Nacional of Argentina.[8]

On 1 January 2016,[1] Salcedo was transferred to Club Libertad for the 2016 Primera División Paraguaya season after being on loan to Sol de América from Cerro Porteño in 2015.[9]

In January 2021, it was announced that Salcedo would continue his career in Paraguay's second-tier with Sportivo San Lorenzo.[10] He will be coached by his brother, Jose Domingo Salcedo, and Salcedo opted to stay at Sportivo San Lorenzo to give the club promotion back to the first-tier.[2]

In December 2021, Salcedo's return to the Primera División in 2022 was confirmed when the 40-year-old was announced as a signing for newly promoted General Caballero JLM.[11][12][13] Already with 152 goals in Paraguay's top-tier, Salcedo commented that he wished to be the league's leading goal scorer in 2022.[14] On 9 January 2022 of Paraguay's summer transfer window, Salcedo's transfer was officially complete.[15]
