Tottenham Hotspur loanee Manor Solomon has hinted that he may think twice about making a loan move to Leeds United permanent if a managerial change is made at Elland Road in the summer.
Solomon has been a key player for the Whites this season as they earned promotion back to the Premier League at the second time of asking. Since joining Leeds on loan from Spurs in the summer, the winger has established himself as a starter and scored nine goal in 38 appearances, while also providing 12 assists.
His performance have led to calls for the loan move to be made permanent in the summer. As reported by football.london last month, Solomon would be open to making the move permanent, but there is also expected to be interest from other Premier League and overseas sides.
The Israel international has now given the latest on his future and the possibility of a summer move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
“No, not yet. Honestly, I really don't know what's going to happen in the summer,” he told LeedsLive .
“I still have three years left on my contract with Tottenham, so at the moment we really don't know. So far I've been always only focused on the season and what we want to achieve, and still we have an important game to go.
“And I think that after this game [vs Plymouth Argyle on Saturday], then we will start to think about my future. But so far, I've been only focused on the right now.”
Amid the promotion celebrations at Elland Road, there has also been speculation over the future of manager Daniel Farke. There has been reports that the newly-promoted club could look to replace the manager due to uncertainty about his record in the Premier League.
During his time with Norwich City, his two promotions were followed by immediate returns to the Championship the following season. But Solomon has made his feelings clear on the manager, and how that could impact on his future.
“Daniel was one of the decisions [sic] why I joined Leeds, so definitely it could be one of the reasons why I will join Leeds in the summer, why or not,” he said.
“So I really don't know at the moment, I haven't thought about it so much, to be fair. As I said, I've been always only focused on my time here and on the season, and I don't know what will happen in the summer.
“Really I just wish him the best here at Leeds or whatever will happen. He deserves it.”
He added on the Leeds boss: “I remember our first call on the phone. We had a long call and he told me that he wanted me and explained to me what he wanted to see from me on the pitch.
“When I came here, straight away he helped me to settle down and to acclimatise within the team. And also when I had a bad period, he was always behind me.
"We always had conversations and he wanted to help me to achieve my best. So I can say that he has a lot of credit for the season that I've had.”
Leeds play their final game of the season away at Plymouth on Saturday afternoon (12.30pm kick-off). A win would see them earn 100 points and secure the Championship title ahead of Burnley in what could possibly be Solomon’s final match with the club before returning to Spurs.
