Leeds United make official Manor Solomon and Tottenham transfer announcement
Manor Solomon’s future has been heavily speculated this summer after a successful loan spell at Leeds United.
The attacker was a major player for Daniel Farke last season as the Peacocks won promotion to the Premier League.
On loan from Tottenham, the winger netted 10 times and registered 13 assists in 41 matches.
Leeds had reportedly been hoping to bring Solomon back to Elland Road ahead of the upcoming season.
Leeds confirm Solomon has returned to Tottenham
Leeds’ pursuit of Solomon has gone quiet in recent weeks, with pre-season now set to start.
It had been reported that Solomon was likely to depart Tottenham this summer, in what was no doubt a big boost for Farke.
However, the Elland Road faithful now know the immediate fate of their former loan star.

Leeds announced on their official website on Tuesday (1 July) that Solomon has now returned to Tottenham after his successful loan spell.
Alongside the winger, Joe Rothwell has also returned to Bournemouth, with the Peacocks taking the time to thank the duo for their performances last season.
The statement did not add any information on whether the Yorkshire club were in talks to sign the pair, but that does not seem likely at this stage – especially with Rothwell now wanted by Rangers.
Farke may have to move on from Solomon
Despite his great 2024/25 campaign, Farke may be forced to move on from Solomon this summer.
It is clear that Spurs are proving to be difficult to deal with in the transfer window, and Leeds cannot afford to wait around.
Therefore, Farke has to target alternatives on the winger, or he could end up being unprepared for the start of the Premier League campaign.
Missing out on Solomon will no doubt be a loss. However, there are plenty of other players available who could match the Israeli’s ability.
Hopefully Farke has someone in mind to help avoid another transfer saga being dragged on throughout the summer transfer window.
