Francisco 'Fran' Sol Ortiz (born 13 March 1992) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Dutch club Willem II as a forward.

Club career

Born in Madrid, Sol joined Real Madrid's youth system in July 2002 at the age of 10, and began playing with the Alevín B-team. In the 2010–11 season, he made his senior debuts with Real Madrid C, in a match against CF Trival Valderas for the Tercera División championship.[1]

For the 2012–13 campaign, Sol was loaned to CD Lugo.[2] He made his professional debut on 25 August 2012, coming on as a substitute for Mauro Quiroga in the 77th minute of a 1–1 away draw against UD Las Palmas;[3] early into the following month, he made his first start in Segunda División, helping his team to the same result at Sporting de Gijón.[4]

On 14 December 2012, Sol scored the 3–2 game winner against Real Madrid Castilla.[5][6] On 16 January of the following year, however, his loan spell was ended and he joined Real Oviedo of Segunda División B, in the same predicament.[7][8]

Sol made his debut with the Asturians on 20 January 2013, replacing Diego Cervero for the last minutes of the away match against CF Fuenlabrada.[9] He returned to Real Madrid in June, and moved to Villarreal CF's reserves on 2 July of the following year.[10]

On 25 April 2015, Sol appeared in his first competitive game with the Valencians' main squad, replacing Jaume Costa in a 0–0 La Liga draw at Real Sociedad.[11] He moved abroad for the first time on 25 June 2016, signing a three-year deal at Eredivisie club Willem II[12] and scoring on his debut on 6 August, a 1–4 home defeat to SBV Vitesse; two weeks later he netted the winner in a 2–1 victory at AFC Ajax, his team's first win there in history.[13]
