Tottenham forward Manor Solomon hopes to return to Leeds before the end of the summer transfer window, journalist Dom Smith has claimed.
The 'unplayable' 26-year-old winger is expected to depart North London this summer and reportedly prioritises a return to Elland Road as he is not part of new manager Thomas Frank’s plans.
Solomon spent last season on loan with Leeds in the Championship and was a key player in Daniel Farke’s side, scoring 10 goals and providing 12 assists in 39 appearances.
He last played for Spurs in September 2023 before suffering a serious knee injury and has amassed only six senior appearances for the Lilywhites to date.
Solomon joined Tottenham on a free transfer from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer of 2023 and is under contract for another three seasons.
Manor Solomon Wants Elland Road Return
According to King, Solomon’s plans of returning to Leeds could be impacted by their interest in AC Milan forward Noah Okafor, who is highly rated within the Elland Road hierarchy.
Leeds believe they have an opportunity to sign Okafor before the deadline and have genuine admiration for the Swiss international, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Napoli.
He played only four times for the Serie A champions before returning to San Siro, where he is under contract until June 2028.
GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Okafor scored seven goals and provided five assists in 53 appearances for AC Milan.
Leeds have been one of the Premier League’s busiest clubs this summer as they are now working on their ninth signing, with talks ongoing for Leicester City defender James Justin’s arrival.
The Whites announced Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s arrival on a free transfer earlier this week and have also welcomed the likes of Anton Stach, Jaka Bijol and Lucas Perri.
Farke’s side kick off their Premier League season with a home clash against Everton on Monday.
