Latest Leeds United transfer news and speculation, including an update on Manor Solomon’s future while on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.
Leeds United has apparently reached a decision on Manor Solomon’s future with the club.
Last summer, United signed Solomon on a season-long loan from Tottenham Hotspur. The Israel international has seven goals in his loan spell with Leeds this season and will be hoping to assist the team win promotion back to the Premier League.
Daniel Farke’s squad now leads the Championship table with 76 points, tied with Sheffield United, who are second and behind on goal difference. Leeds also has a two-point advantage over Burnley, who sit third and outside the automatic promotion slots.
Given Solomon’s importance to the Whites this season, there has been an update on the forward’s future. The Mirror reports that Leeds want to sign Solomon on a permanent basis at the end of the season.
It has been stated that the club has already told Tottenham that they intend to sign Solomon permanently when the summer transfer window opens. However, it has been stated that this will only happen if United win promotion to the Premier League.
The report makes no indication of the money that Leeds would be willing to provide or the price Spurs would seek for the 25-year-old. According to the source, Tottenham would be willing to let Solomon leave North London permanently in order to free up more room on the pay bill.
Solomon signed for Tottenham as a free agent in the summer of 2023, after leaving Shakhtar Donetsk. Solomon made only six appearances for Spurs last season due to a major knee injury, and after recovering, he signed for Leeds.
