On 4 August 2021, Soler was loaned to Primera División RFEF side Internacional de Madrid for the season.[6] Upon returning, he left Los Blancos on 20 July 2022,[7] and returned to Espanyol on 1 August, on a two-year contract;[8] he was initially assigned to the B-team in Segunda Federación.

Soler made his first team debut with the Pericos on 12 November 2022, replacing Omar El Hilali in a 3–0 away win over CD Rincón, for the campaign's Copa del Rey.[9][10] His professional debut occurred on 23 March 2024, as he replaced Álvaro Aguado late into a 1–1 Segunda División home draw against CD Tenerife.[11]
