Club career

Born in Valencia, Soler was first introduced to football by taking shots at half-time at the age of four during games for Bonrepòs, his brother's team. Impressed by his power, the club wanted him; he was initially too shy and only joined when his grandfather gave him a Game Boy for attending.{{cite news |last1=Lowe |first1=Sid |title=Valencia's Carlos Soler: 'You're comparing me to Cazorla, Mata and Silva?
