Club career

[edit]

Born in San José del Guaviare, capital of the Guaviare Department of Colombia, Solís began his footballing career with Alianza Llanos [es] in Villavicencio.[1] He played for a couple of clubs in Bogotá, as well as Ibagué-based VyV (Vargas y Virviescas) Mi nuevo Tolima,[2] also representing the Tolima Department in the National Championship, before moving to Argentina to join Boca Juniors.[1] Shortly after arriving at the Buenos Aires-based club, he was invited to train with the first team.[1][2]

After a year and a half with Boca Juniors, he returned to Colombia, signing with Deportes Tolima.[1] He featured for the club in a 0–0 friendly draw with Atlético Huila in January 2019, but would not play for the club in official competitions.[3] In February 2020, he was loaned to Categoría Primera B side Bogotá for six months.[4] He finished the 2020 campaign with two league appearances, before returning to Deportes Tolima.

He spent the next two seasons in the Colombian second division with Fortaleza C.E.I.F., establishing himself as a first team player by the end of the 2021 season.[5]

Following his release by Fortaleza C.E.I.F., he moved to the United States, joining MLS Next Pro side Orlando City B, and went on to make his debut in the opening game of the season: a 3–1 away win against Philadelphia Union II.[6]
