Edoardo Soleri (born 19 October 1997) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie B club Sampdoria on loan from Spezia.
Born in Rome, Soleri joined Roma's youth setup in 2013, from SSD Futbolclub.[2] He was subsequently included in the Primavera squad, and also featured in the 2015–16 and 2016–17 UEFA Youth Leagues.
Soleri made his professional debut on 29 September 2015, coming on as a late substitute for Alessandro Florenzi in a 3–2 away loss against BATE Borisov, for the season's UEFA Champions League.[3]
On 30 June 2017, after finishing his formation, Soleri was loaned to Serie B side Spezia for one year.[4] He made his debut for the club on 12 August, playing the last 24 minutes in a 2–0 Coppa Italia away loss against Sassuolo.
On 19 January 2018, Soleri's loan was cut short after only five league appearances.[5] The following day, he joined Spanish Segunda División side UD Almería on loan until June.[6]
In July 2018, Soleri signed to Eerste Divisie club Almere City on loan.[7]
In January 2019, Soleri signed to Braga on loan until the end of the season.[8]
On 10 July 2019, Soleri signed a three-year contract with Serie C club Padova.[9] On 6 January 2021, he joined Monopoli on loan.[10]
On 16 July 2021, he was loaned to Palermo.[11] In his time at Palermo, he became the second-best goalscorer behind Matteo Brunori, marking a total ten goals in the regular season, all of them as a substitute.[12] He confirmed his "super-sub" reputation by scoring the first of two Palermo goals in the promotion playoff quarter-final second leg against Virtus Entella, a 2–2 home draw that allowed the Sicilians to qualify for the semifinals,[13] as well as scoring the final goal in a 3–0 away win at Feralpisalò in the semifinal first leg.[14]
On 16 June 2022, Palermo exercised their option to make the transfer permanent.[15] Later in August 2022, Soleri signed a contract extension until 30 June 2025 with the Rosanero.[16] On 5 February 2023, he scored his first career goal in the Serie B league, the winning one in a 2–1 home win against third-placed Reggina.[17]
On 14 July 2024, Soleri left Palermo to sign for fellow Serie B club Spezia.[18]
On 2 February 2026, Soleri joined Sampdoria from Spezia as part of a deal in which midfielder Alessandro Bellemo moved the other way.[19] He joined Sampdoria on loan with an option to buy, and signed a contract until 30 June 2028 which would be in place if the option is exercised.[20]
