49ers ‘to seal transfer swoop’ as Solomon makes Leeds decision
Leeds United are looking for firepower as they aim to avoid relegation in their first season back in the Premier League.
Daniel Farke has done an exceptional job guiding Leeds back to the Premier League, but the real task begins now.
He certainly would want to retain the services of Manor Solomon, who performed exceptionally for the Whites this past season.
The Israel international, on loan from Tottenham, scored 10 goals and provided 12 assists in 39 Championship games.

Solomon decides against permanent Elland Road switch
Despite a stellar campaign for the Whites, a return to Elland Road is not the priority for the 25-year-old, MOT Leeds News has exclusively learned.
Solomon is wanted by Marseille and he fancies moving to the Ligue 1 outfit over moving to the newly-promoted side.
While the West Yorkshire outfit retain an interest, their chances of signing him permanently have significantly reduced.

Appearances | 39 |
Goals | 10 |
Assists | 12 |
This is undoubtedly bad news for Farke’s side as Solomon was arguably their most important attacking player of the 2024/25 season.
The Premier League is an entirely different ball game, so having a player with experience in the top flight would’ve come in handy.

Leeds must switch focus to another winger
The San Francisco 49ers, owners of the Elland Road club through 49ers Enterprises, must prioritise signing another winger due to the uncertainty surrounding Solomon’s permanent transfer from Spurs.
Their promotion to the Premier League demands a robust squad, and with Solomon’s departure looming, the 49ers need a creative, dynamic winger to maintain attacking depth.
The Whites’ extended transfer budget allows for quality signings to complement Daniel Farke’s system, giving them the best chance of avoiding the drop.
Failing to replace Solomon risks weakening Leeds’ flanks, especially with potential exits of other stars, making a new winger essential for Premier League competitiveness.
It remains to be seen who the alternative winger option for the Whites is, but they need to narrow in on him immediately, or it could prove to be devastating.
