Tottenham could recall Manor Solomon from his loan spell at Villarreal in the January transfer window.
The 26-year-old had a hugely successful loan spell at Leeds United in 2024-25, but the winger hasn’t adapted well to life in Spain this season.
The Israeli winger has only made six appearances for Villarreal and he is currently recovering from a back injury that will leave him unavailable until December.
Reports have now emerged that Solomon could make a return to the Premier League with West Ham.
West Ham interested in January deal for Manor Solomon
Solomon signed for Tottenham in 2023 on a free transfer, yet after making six appearances under Ange Postecoglou last season, he was quickly loaned out to Leeds.
MORE SPURS STORIES
He registered 22 goal contributions for Leeds in 2024-25, helping them win the Championship and secure a return to the top flight.
Spanish media outlet Mediterraneo has reported that West Ham could move for Solomon in January, with the Israeli winger said to be unhappy in Spain.
He is reportedly going to ask Spurs to terminate his loan deal, and it’s unclear what lies ahead for his future in N17.
With West Ham in desperate need of some attacking firepower to help them avoid relegation, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Frank were to send him straight back out on loan, even if to a local rival.
Solomon’s move to Villarreal has been far from perfect, and a return to England would definitely benefit him, whether that be at Spurs or West Ham.
Whilst it’s clear that Solomon is not in the best of form at the moment, he offers a different profile to Tottenham’s wingers.
Manor Solomon should be given a chance under Thomas Frank
Brennan Johnson has performed poorly under Thomas Frank, and his place in the starting eleven is under huge threat.
Johnson scored the winning goal in the Europa League final, and Spurs fans will never forget the joy he brought to them; however, he is yet to find his feet under Frank.
Solomon’s direct dribbling and his clinical nature in front of goal could make him a perfectly capable candidate to replace Johnson in the starting lineup.
The 26-year-old hasn’t been given a proper chance to prove himself at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and it’s now up to Frank to decide what he will do with the Israel international.
