Club career
[edit]Born in Ontinyent, Valencian Community, Soriano finished his youth career at Valencia CF,[1] and made his senior debut with their reserves in the Segunda División B. On 21 June 2003 he played his only La Liga game with the first team, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 3–0 away win against Sevilla FC.[2]
Released by the Che in summer 2004, Soriano went on to spend seven of the following eight seasons in the third division, with CD Castellón, CD Leganés, Ontinyent CF and CF Badalona.[3] On 4 July 2012, he joined Segunda División side CD Guadalajara.[4]
Soriano appeared in his first competitive match for his new club on 19 August 2012, featuring the full 90 minutes of a 1–1 draw at AD Alcorcón.[5] He scored his only goal as a professional the following 7 April, contributing to a 3–1 home victory over Córdoba CF.[6]
On 2 March 2014, Soriano signed for Real Avilés CF until the end of the third-tier season.[7] After impressing, he moved to Leganés one league above on 2 July.[8]
Soriano agreed to a new one-year contract at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque in June 2015.[9] He contributed 22 appearances during the campaign, as the team from the Madrid outskirts achieved promotion to the top flight for the first time ever.[10][11]
On 7 July 2016, 33-year-old Soriano signed a one-year deal with SD Huesca as a free agent.[10] A year later, he moved to fellow second-division club AD Alcorcón on a contract of the same duration.[12]
On 23 July 2018, Soriano joined Lleida Esportiu in division three for two years.[13]
