Made his debut in Spain’s humiliating 3-2 reverse to Cyprus at the start of the Euro 2000 campaign, but he has nonetheless retained his position as regular right-back. A member of the Spanish side that won the European Under-21 Championship, Salgado had an outstanding 1998/99 season with Celta de Vigo. He was subsequently snapped up by Real Madrid CF, and he has been a regular at the Santiago Bernabeu all season. Now Spain’s number-one right-back.
