Red Star Belgrade
He started with Sunshine Stars F.C. before moving to Ibadan-based Shooting Stars F.C.

In January 2015, Salami transferred to Serbian side Red Star Belgrade by signing a loan deal for remainder of the season, with an option for permanent deal.[5] He returned to Warri less than two months later when Red Star was having financial problems.[6]
