Injuries and competition from other young defenders forced him to play second fiddle to more experienced players like Lucas Hernandez and Lucas Digne. Despite this, Saliba continued to impress and was eventually promoted to the first team squad in 2019.

Since making his senior debut, Saliba has made a significant impact at Marseille. He has played in all three of their league games this season and has already scored two goals. His performance has not gone unnoticed either, as he has been named in the Ligue 1 Team of the Week twice this season.

With his continued development, it will be interesting to see how he performs in the coming seasons and what kind of impact he can have at the highest level of football.
