Playing in the World Cup for Mexico and the UEFA Champions League for Eindhoven, Salcido quickly became a fan-favorite among Mexican soccer fans. Following a good performance at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Salcido made a big transfer to Fulham in England. His first assist as part of the Fulham squad was scored by American legend Clint Dempsey.
