Leeds United news: Manor Solomon exit twist emerges with internal talks held
Manor Solomon, who joined Leeds United on loan from Tottenham in the summer, is subject to transfer interest from the Premier League.
The Israel international has been among the first names on the team sheet this season for Daniel Farke.
In all competitions, the 25-year-old has made 29 appearances and the Whites face a battle to hold on to him.
Everton hold internal talks to sign Manor Solomon after his season for Leeds United
Under new owners and a new manager in David Moyes, Everton are keen on strengthening in the summer transfer window.
It’s understood that they have identified Solomon as a potential option to play out wide under the Scotsman.
Give Me Sport’s Ben Jacobs reported on 26 February that the Toffees have even held internal talks to sign Solomon.
Leeds may want to keep the 25-year-old attacker beyond the summer, but they do not have the option to buy him.
If they are to secure his services permanently, they will have to negotiate a transfer fee with Spurs.
Dan Friedkin may use his wealth to tilt the odds in Everton’s favour
The Toffees were taken over by The Friedkin Group at the end of 2024 and their owner Dan Friedkin is a billionaire and would want to take the club to the next level.
He could use his wealth to offer a mega transfer funding in the summer transfer window, making it tougher for Leeds to sign him.
The Whites face a tough challenge in securing Solomon’s services permanently, even if they achieve Premier League promotion.
He has drawn interest from established top-flight clubs like Everton and Leicester City, who could outmuscle Leeds financially and with the allure of immediate Premier League stability.

Solomon’s impressive Championship form has reignited his appeal, making him a hot commodity.
Tottenham might also opt to retain him for another season, especially if they see his recent performances as a sign he could bolster their squad depth after an injury-hit spell.
Leeds’ lack of a buy option in the loan deal further complicates matters, leaving them at the mercy of Spurs’ valuation and rival bids.
While promotion would boost Leeds’ case, competing with wealthier clubs and Tottenham’s potential reluctance to sell could price them out or derail negotiations entirely.
