Manor Solomon provided the jewel in the Leeds United crown by scoring the Championship title-winning goal.

While that moment will be savoured for some time, the winger did so much more than that during his time at Elland Road.

Now, Leeds are hellbent on signing Solomon, with speculation around the Israeli's future rife.

In an eye-catching twist, the Spurs forward has been presented with a Leeds shirt amid transfer talk.

Solomon shows off Leeds United shirt amid speculation

Solomon is a player full of potential, which he fulfilled while on loan with Leeds.

Tottenham will have been keeping tabs on the winger's progress, but they are eyeing heftier targets this summer. This means that Solomon will likely be available, and understandably, the Whites have been linked with a rekindling.

The 25-year-old was deadly this season, notching 22 goal contributions in the Championship.

To cap off a superb campaign, Solomon scored the winner on the final day to clinch the title ahead of Burnley on goal difference.

Solomon has now been pictured doing what every Leeds supporter was hoping for, holding up the Peacocks' famous white shirt.

The 25-year-old was doing so alongside three men, who presumably belong to the groups tagged in his Instagram story (10 June).

Leeds must prioritise goalkeeper and striker amid Solomon interest

While signing Solomon is a no-brainer, the Elland Road side must also prioritise a new goalkeeper and striker. Daniel Farke does not possess a Premier League-quality goalkeeper, with Illan Meslier and Karl Darlow the current options.

A move for Nick Pope would be wise, considering Newcastle United's interest in James Trafford.

Leeds United also now have a free run on Callum Wilson, who will officially become a free agent this summer. While the 33-year-old did not score a single goal last season, he needs to thrive as the main man once again.

Signing Solomon would be the perfect start for Farke, and there is reason to be optimistic about potential transfers.
