“If I were a Tottenham player, I’d also aim to join a club where I’d be in the starting lineup, that’s the goal. A player’s career is short, and after eight years in Europe, Manor wants to make an impact.

“I think, without any personal bias, he has to play. He has a place at Tottenham, but some people think otherwise.

"He was also quite successful last year at Fiorentina, aside from a month and a half of bad luck and injury. I’m sure he’ll continue; he just needs the spot he deserves.

"West Ham are a huge club; Yossi Benayoun and Eyal Berkovic were there, too.”

Ben-Ezra added that Solomon is in “high demand” and that “many teams like him because he’s a good player and a good person”.

"Manor wants to play and be a key player. I believe that will happen in the coming days. I believe he’ll be playing in England next year, it’s very likely,” he concluded.

Solomon, who began his career at Maccabi Petah Tikva, joined Spurs in 2023 fresh from a loan season at Fulham while signed to Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk.

He has spent the past two seasons on loan, however, first to Leeds followed by a year split between Villarreal and Fiorentina. From a Sephardic family, he holds a Portuguese passport, which he uses to play in Europe more readily.
