Tottenham Hotspur winger Manor Solomon will have his medical with West Ham United later today, according to journalist Ben Jacobs.

Solomon has been expected to move on from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer despite catching the eye in Spurs’ pre-season, which raised some questions over whether Roberto De Zerbi would give him a fresh chance.

A return to Fiorentina, where he spent the second half of last term on loan, has appeared to be a possibility, if Tottenham reduced their asking price of around £8.5m.

Tottenham have refused to do that though, leaving Fiorentina frustrated, but the Premier League side have found a taker for Solomon and on acceptable terms.

West Ham have agreed to sign the Israeli winger for a fee of £5m plus a further £2m in add-ons.

Matters are moving quickly as the start of the new Championship season approaches and Solomon is set to undergo his medical with West Ham later today.

Solomon will be looking to come through the checks without an issue and then put paper to a contract with West Ham.

The winger has played in the Championship before, with Leeds United, who he helped to win the division and earn promotion to the Premier League.

He performed well in the Championship, leaving a former Leeds boss insisting that defenders did not know how to cope with him.

Solomon also suggested that the intensity and physicality of the Championship was not far off the Premier League’s level.

As such, the winger is not heading into unknown territory.

Hammers boss Nuno Espirito Santo will be hopeful he can hit the ground running and help the side make a good start as they aim for promotion.

For Spurs, Solomon may feel he did not get a proper opportunity, especially with injury playing its part, and it remains to be seen if the north London side are given cause to regret letting him go.

Nottingham Forest are closely monitoring the situation of Tottenham Hotspur hitman Dominic Solanke, amid suggestions he could depart N17 this summer.

Solanke arrived at Spurs from fellow Premier League side Bournemouth in the summer of 2024 and put pen to paper on a six-year deal with the club.

However, the move has not worked out according to plan, as the striker has not had the desired impact, along with Spurs having back to back disastrous seasons in the Premier League.

With the summer transfer window in full swing, Spurs have signed several players to bolster their squad, but boss Roberto De Zerbi will also need to manage departures.

There has been little to suggest Solanke will be leaving, but a departure is possible, according to Italian journalist Gianluigi Longari.

And Nottingham Forest are ‘keeping a close eye’ on Solanke’s situation at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Forest want add more edge in attack and saw Lorenzo Lucca fail to perform when he joined on loan from Napoli in the winter transfer window.

In the recent campaign, Solanke was limited to just 15 Premier League appearances due to several injuries and contributed to just three goals.

How much Spurs would demand to part ways with Solanke, who they signed for approximately £55m plus add-ons just two seasons back, remains to be seen.

However, Solanke is not the only attacker with an uncertain future at N17, as Spurs could let go of his strike partner Richarlison, though the Brazilian forward’s ‘career plan’ has slowed things down.

Spurs themselves have been looking to add more firepower to their attack and the club are ‘in direct talks’ with Liverpool star Cody Gakpo’s entourage.

Gakpo would not replace Solanke and if the striker did go then De Zerbi would surely want a replacement.

It now remains to be seen whether Nottingham Forest send in a bid for Solanke and what reception that would get in north London.

Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United now face competition for Bilal El Khannouss from a club that can offer Champions League football in the shape of Galatasaray, who have opened talks about a deal.

The Morocco international only completed his World Cup journey last month, playing a pivotal role in his nation’s run to the quarter-finals by featuring in all six matches.

That impressive form was simply a continuation of his standout loan spell at Stuttgart, where he helped Die Schwaben secure a top-four Bundesliga finish and a return to the Champions League.

Since arriving from Leicester City, initially on loan last September, the attacking midfielder has made 42 appearances, registering 16 goal involvements, including nine goals.

Those eye-catching performances have now brought Premier League interest to Stuttgart’s doorstep, with Tottenham, Newcastle and Crystal Palace all keeping tabs on the talented midfielder.

According to Turkish journalist Ertan Suzgun (via Transfer Merkezi), admirers Galatasaray have taken a step further, opening official talks with Stuttgart over a potential move for El Khannouss.

Galatasaray can offer the lure of Champions League nights, something the 22-year-old would have to sacrifice if he opts for a switch to either of the interested English clubs.

However, with four years remaining on his contract and having only made his move permanent in May, Stuttgart are under no pressure to sell and are unlikely to let the Morocco international leave without a significant fee.

El Khannouss already boasts Premier League experience, having spent the 2024/25 campaign with Leicester City after making the move to the King Power Stadium from Genk in the summer of 2024.

During his only season in England’s top flight, he registered two goals and three assists in 32 appearances as the Foxes suffered relegation, later admitting that the intensity of English football exceeded that of the Bundesliga.

It remains to be seen whether El Khannouss will have the chance to prove himself in the Premier League once again or whether Galatasaray can win the race for his signature, with the midfielder having only recently established himself as a key figure at Stuttgart.

Napoli have set their sights on Tottenham Hotspur winger Mathys Tel, but ‘the club must handle’ two departures before they can begin negotiations for the Frenchman.

Tel first arrived in north London on loan after struggling for regular game time at Bayern Munich, prompting a move to Tottenham in February 2025.

The 21-year-old made an immediate impact under former boss Ange Postecoglou, featuring 20 times, including five appearances in the Europa League as Spurs ended their 17-year wait for silverware.

Tel finished the campaign with three goals and one assist before making the move permanent last June, putting pen to paper on a contract running until 2031.

However, after seeing his playing time diminish at N17 last season, it was claimed the French winger had become ‘eager for a change of scenery’.

That feeling has only been reinforced by Tottenham’s activity in the transfer market, with new head coach Roberto De Zerbi expected to strengthen heavily in the wide areas this summer, leaving Tel wary of another campaign spent on the fringes.

The Frenchman was offered to Galatasaray through agents last month, while Lyon and Roma also expressed interest in the frontman.

According to Italian journalist Marco Giordano, Napoli have now entered the picture, although the Serie A giants cannot begin formal negotiations until they offload two attackers.

Massimiliano Allegri has no shortage of attacking options at his disposal, meaning departures are inevitable, with Romelu Lukaku among those expected to move on after refusing to accept a reduced role.

Lorenzo Lucca is another player facing an uncertain future, with the striker currently recovering from an ankle injury and seemingly falling out of favour after spending the second half of last season on loan at Nottingham Forest.

Despite the transfer speculation, Tel has played a prominent role throughout De Zerbi’s four pre-season fixtures, contributing a goal and an assist along the way.

However, with Tottenham holding direct talks over moves for Cody Gakpo and Savinho, the latter appearing an unrealistic target for Serie A clubs, the 21-year-old is expected to consider any serious offers that arrive.

With a month remaining before the transfer window closes, it remains to be seen whether Napoli can make the necessary room in their squad and turn their interest into a formal approach for the Tottenham winger.
