Jhon Élmer Solís Romero (born 3 October 2004) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for La Liga club Girona.
Early life
[edit]Born in Guacarí in the Valle del Cauca Department of Colombia, the youngest of three siblings, Solís was named after his father, Jhon Élmer Sr..[1]
Club career
[edit]Atlético Nacional
[edit]Solís developed a passion for football from his father, who would buy him footballs as gifts.[1] He began his career with local side Racing de Guacarí, before being spotted by professional side Atlético Nacional.[1] He also represented the Valle del Cauca Department at the National Championship, but did not feature much due to injury.[1]
Having won the national under-17 tournament with Atlético Nacional in 2021, Solís was promoted to the first team the following year, featuring in a handful of games before rejecting loan offers in July from fellow Categoría Primera A clubs.[2] Having finished the 2022 season with six appearances in the first division, Solís was named as a starter for the first game in 2023, and impressed as Atlético Nacional went on to defeat Once Caldas 1–0 on 27 January.[3] His good start to the season continued, and he was noted for his performances in Atlético Nacional's first few games, also being linked with a move to Portuguese side Porto.[4][5]
On 24 May 2023, with the score-line at 0–0 against Peruvian side Melgar in the Copa Libertadores, Solís was given a second yellow card just after half time for delaying the taking of a throw in.[6] Despite Atlético Nacional winning the game 1–0, Solís received criticism from fans online, who did not believe his performances warranted a starting place in the side.[7]
Girona
[edit]On 1 September 2023, La Liga side Girona announced the signing of Solís on a five-year contract.[8]
International career
[edit]Solís has represented Colombia at under-15 and under-16 level.
