Social Network
Solanke maintains a presence on social media platforms, although specific details about his engagements are not extensively reported.
Solanke primarily plays as a striker, although can also operate as either an attacking midfielder or a winger. Former Chelsea striker Tore André Flo has said that Solanke "works really hard", has "got very good physique" and "a great touch on the ball". He went on to say: "He's quick but often what impresses me the most is when he looks like he's lost the ball, he somehow manages to get out with the ball, no matter how tight the situation is or how difficult it looks".
Education
Solanke attended Brighton Hill Community School in Basingstoke, where he was raised. Details about further education are not widely published.
