Manor Solomon finally on verge of Tottenham exit after summer-long Leeds links
Manor Solomon has been linked with Leeds all summer.
Less than one hour remains until the transfer window slams shut, though Premier League clubs will have until 9pm to finalise deals, as long as a deal sheet was submitted.
Leeds are progressing in talks to sign Harry Wilson from Fulham, meaning they could have at least one new arrival at Elland Road.
Solomon was again linked with Leeds on Monday, and his exit from Tottenham is set to be confirmed.
Crystal Palace win race for Manor Solomon transfer
Solomon had a special campaign with Leeds in the Championship, and was linked with a return ever since going back to Tottenham.
However, according to Henry Winter via X, he is edging closer to a move to Crystal Palace in a blow to the Whites.
Leeds allowed Largie Ramazani to join Valencia on loan, and unless something happens last minute, it looks like they will regret it.
Noah Okafor’s injury concerns have already emerged at Leeds, while Willy Gnonto will seemingly be the go-to option for Farke on the left flank.
If Wilson completes a move, the 49ers will have somewhat saved face; otherwise, this has been a disaster of a deadline day.
Harry Wilson or bust for Leeds United
Wilson would be a good addition for Leeds, though it will do little to paper over the cracks of what has been a disappointing end to the window.
The Whites have scored just one goal this season, from the penalty spot, and yet it looks as though they will end the window with the same concerns that they started with.
Farke was getting frustrated at the lack of movement in the buildup to deadline day, and one can only imagine how he is feeling as 7pm edges closer and closer.
As always at this stage in the window, things can change in an instant, but it certainly feels as though the 49ers are heading for ridicule.
