Jefferson Andrés Lerma Solís (born 25 October 1994) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder or centre-back for Premier League club Crystal Palace and the Colombia national team.

A youth product of Atlético Huila, Lerma played for three years in Colombia before joining Spanish side Levante on loan in 2016, with the club making the move permanent later that year on a four-year contract. In 2018, he signed for Premier League side AFC Bournemouth for a club-record fee of €30 million, spending five seasons there before joining Crystal Palace on a free transfer in 2023, where he went on to win the FA Cup and the FA Community Shield in 2025, as well as the UEFA Conference League in 2026.
