Philip Salyer

Philip Preston Jr. Salyer (born October 30, 1981) is an American soccer player who played as a midfielder or left-back for Werder Bremen II in the Regionalliga Nord and for F.C.

Salyer played college soccer for the University of Maryland in the fall of 2000 and 2001, starting 40 games and registering 6 goals and 6 assists.

After his sophomore season, Salyer left Maryland, choosing to play for Werder Bremen reserve team, with whom he signed in January 2002.

After slightly under a year with the Werder Bremen reserves, Salyer returned to the United States in search of more playing time.

By the beginning of the 2004 season, Salyer looked to have secured the starting right back position for the Burn, as his competition Tenywa Bonseu, Ryan Suarez, and Shavar Thomas had all left the club during the offseason.
