Tobias Salquist (born 18 May 1995) is a Danish footballer who plays as a centre-back for Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire.
Salquist joined Silkeborg IF from FC Midtjylland at the age of 16 as an U17-player.
Salquist had his Superliga debut on 25 April 2015, in a 0–1 defeat against FC Nordsjælland, where he replaced an injured Thorbjørn Holst Rasmussen in the 25th minute.[2]
On 19 May 2015, Salquist signed a new three-year contract with Silkeborg.[3]
On 30 May 2018, Silkeborg confirmed, that Salquist would leave the club in the summer, where his contract expired.[4] At this time, there were rumors linking him together with a transfer to the Belgian club Waasland-Beveren. One day later, Salquist confirmed, that he was joining a Belgian club, without revealing which club.[5]
On 2 March 2016, Salquist was loaned out to Icelandic club Fjölnir.[6]
On 11 June 2018, Waasland-Beveren confirmed that they had signed Salquist on a three-year contract.[7]
On 7 January 2019, Lillestrøm SK confirmed that they had signed Salquist on a three-year contract.[8] His former Silkeborg teammate Daniel A. Pedersen accidentally confirmed the transfer a few hours before the club itself released the news.[9] On 7 September 2020 the club confirmed, that Salquist had agreed to terminate his contract so he could return to Denmark and be closer to his girlfriend, who was pregnant.[10]
After returning to Denmark, Salquist went on a trial at Esbjerg fB, but ended up joining Hobro IK on 9 September 2020, signing a deal for the rest of the year.[11]
On 13 January 2021 Silkeborg IF confirmed, that Salquist had returned to the club on a three-year deal.[12]
In January 2024, after three years at Silkeborg, Salquist moved to American club Chicago Fire FC on a deal until the end of 2025 with a option for one year further.[13]
