Bartosz Salamon (born 1 May 1991) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Polish club Lech Poznan and the Poland national team.
In March 2016, three years after his senior squad absence, he received a call-up from Poland Manager Adam Nawalka for matches against Serbia and Finland. On 30 May, he was called up to Poland squad for UEFA Euro 2016, but was an unused substitute in all matches.
In 2023, after Lech's match against Djurgardens IF in the UEFA Europa Conference League, Salamon tested positive for chlortalidone, a substance banned by WADA. On 13 April 2023, hours before a home game in the quarter-finals against Fiorentina, UEFA suspended Salamon from all competitions for three months. For his offence, Salamon was banned for eight months, starting from the day of his suspension. He made his return on 16 December 2023, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–2 away draw against Radomiak Radom. On 29 May 2024, Salamon extended his deal with the club for another two years. |
