About Samuel Salter
Samuel Salter is a workmanlike striker whose contributions this season have been modest, reflected in his bottom 30% Sofascore rating among peers. While he remains durable with no games missed in the last three seasons, his attacking output lacks standout qualities, particularly in his touches and final-third passing. Salter's role may be more about providing depth than being a focal point in attack.
Availability: no injuries recorded in the last 3 seasons.
