Recent Tottenham Hotspur transfer rumors have been, finally, of the incoming kind with recent strong links to both Manchester City winger Savinho and Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze. However, there are still more outgoings that are likely as well before the transfer window slams shut, and one of the players closely linked with an exit is Israeli winger Manor Solomon.
Solomon has barely featured for Spurs since his arrival a couple of years ago. Acquired under, to put it gently, somewhat dubious circumstances from Shakhtar Donetsk that had a lot to do with the war in Ukraine, Solomon had a couple of bright appearances early in Ange Postecoglou’s career before picking up a long term injury in 2022-23 and missing almost the entirety of the season. He was loaned to Leeds United last year where he was one of the best players in the Championship.
And in fact, Leeds are the Premier League club most closely linked to Solomon, with numerous reports suggesting they’d love to have him back after they promoted back to the top flight this past summer. Romano (obviously) doesn’t state what La Liga clubs are interested in Manor, but it likely means that Spurs would be able to demand a halfway decent fee for him, considering his 10g+12a Championship campaign.
Is Manor Solomon good enough for the Premier League? Probably. Is he good enough for Tottenham? Well, Ange Postecoglou didn’t think so and neither, apparently, does Thomas Frank. Solomon always seemed like the kind of bargain bin player Spurs would scoop up and eventually flip, and that seems exactly what they plan to do. And with the glut of attacking talent already at the club, trying to fit Solomon in that mix could be tricky. It’s probably best if he goes elsewhere, and Spurs get a little money they can use to invest in other incoming deals.
