Saliakas began his football career attending the Ergotelis Youth Academy, the youth system of his local Super League Greece club Ergotelis. Already capped with the Greece U17 national team, he was spotted by Olympiacos' scouts, who arranged his transfer to the Super League champions in the winter of 2013.[2]
Saliakas played little for Olympiacos and moved to Limassol-based side Karmiotissa on loan, who had been newly promoted to the Cypriot First Division. Having made 31 appearances, he returned to Greece joining Chania of the Football League Greece on a two-year loan. He scored seven goals in 50 games.
On 12 July 2019, facing competition at Olympiacos for his playing position from Omar Elabdellaoui, Bruno Gaspar and Vasilis Torosidis, Saliakas moved to Lamia on a free transfer. He made 29 consecutive appearances in all competitions.
On 31 July 2020, he signed a contract with PAS Giannina in Ioannina.[3][4] He played against Panathinaikos where he got into the semi-final of the Greek Cup in the season 2020–21.[5][6] With PAS Giannina he achieved 6th place in the 2021–22 Super League Greece.
In June 2022 Saliakas moved to FC St. Pauli.[7]
Saliakas made his debut for Greece national team on 3 June 2021 in a friendly against Belgium. He substituted Thanasis Androutsos in the 80th minute.[8]
