Jhon Élmer Solís Romero (born 3 October 2004) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for La Liga club Girona.
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]
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]
On 1 September 2023, La Liga side Girona announced the signing of Solís on a five-year contract.[8]
Solís has represented Colombia at under-15 and under-16 level.
