Sarasota Paradise is excited to welcome back Chris Solari for the 2025 USL League Two season. A dynamic midfielder and winger, Solari returns for his third year with the club, bringing a unique combination of international experience and deep Sarasota roots to the field.
A graduate of Riverview High School, Solari’s soccer journey has taken him around the world, with stints at Alcantarilla FC in Spain, NK Rudar Labin in Croatia, and SC YF Juventus Zurich in Switzerland. These experiences have helped him develop into a smart, versatile player with a natural feel for the game. Solari has also showcased his talent on the national stage, representing Sarasota Paradise in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, where he demonstrated his skill and creativity.
“I am so excited for this upcoming season,” Solari said. “I feel like the club has consistently built a lot of momentum for the past two seasons, from the field all the way to the front office. This puts us in a position to be serious contenders on the national stage this year.”
Fans can catch Solari and the rest of the squad all summer long at Premier Sports Campus at Lakewood Ranch. Tickets are available now at sarasotaparadise.us/tickets.
