Boaz Theofilius Erwin Solossa[1] (born 16 March 1986) is an Indonesian professional footballer that currently plays for Persipura Jayapura in the Liga Super Indonesia. He is known by his high leveled dribbling technique and his crossing accuracy or short-passing with his left-foot.

In 2011, Boas got an offer to play at Dutch club VVV-Venlo, but because of the family reasons he chose to keep playing in Persipura Jayapura.[2]

Personal life

Boas was born in the Solossa family, a well-known family in the province of West Papua. His uncle, Jaap Solossa, was the governor of Papua before he died in 2005. Boas was born in a footballing family as well, being the youngest of five children. Almost all of them were professionals, including his brother Ortizan and Nehemia. Boas obtained a Bachelor of Economics at Cenderawasih University in 2013. He is also works as Civil servant.

His brothers, Ortizan and Nehemia, are also footballers. Boaz plays at Persipura Jayapura while Ortizan plays at Persija. They met in a match at the 2005 Liga Indonesia final, where Persipura beat Persija 3–2.

Club career

East Timor

In 2016 Boas left Persipura for the first time in his career to play for Carsae FC in East Timor, joining fellow Indonesians Imanuel Wanggai and Oktovianus Maniani.[3] However, in April 2016 having only made four appearances Boas along with Wanggai left the club by mutal consent to rejoin Persipura.[4]

International career

Boas' international debut was against Turkmenistan in 2004 for the 2006 World Cup qualification where Indonesia won 3–1 and Boas made two assists for his team mate Ilham Jaya Kesuma. Boas is considered to be a bright prospect in Indonesian football after performing brilliantly in the 2004 Tiger Cup, where Indonesia was defeated by Singapore in a home and away match, which resulted in an aggregate score of 5–2 to Singapore. In the group phase, Boas managed to score 4 goals and along with Ilham Jayakesuma, who scored 7 goals, both led the top scorers chart.

He got injured after a tough tackle in a friendly match against Hong Kong,[5] this make him absent from Asian Cup 2007 and disappear from football for many months.
