Anton Saletros
Chicago Fire/M/
SwedenPlayer Info
Anton Saletros is a Swedish central midfielder who brings composure and tactical intelligence to Major League Soccer's Chicago Fire. The 29-year-old, who can also play in a defensive midfield role, is a product of the famed AIK Fotboll academy in Stockholm. Saletros broke into the AIK first team as a teenager, quickly establishing himself as a metronomic presence in midfield with his precise passing and game reading. After becoming a mainstay for AIK in the Allsvenskan and earning his first senior caps for Sweden, he sought a new challenge in the United States with Chicago Fire. In MLS, his technical quality and ability to dictate play from deep have been immediately apparent, making him a crucial component in the Fire's engine room. His main honors include a Swedish Cup victory with AIK and being part of the team that secured a top-three finish in the Allsvenskan. A calm and collected distributor, Saletros is the type of player who makes his team tick, often going unnoticed but always influencing the flow of the game. He has adapted well to the physical demands of MLS and is viewed as a key building block for Chicago's future aspirations.
