Manor Solomon green lights transfer after Leeds United loan
Manor Solomon handed Leeds United the Championship title after his injury-time winner against Plymouth Argyle in the final game of the season.
That moment encapsulated the winger’s impact at Elland Road this season as a key cog in Daniel Farke’s well-oiled machine.
With the 25-year-old set to return to Tottenham Hotspur when his loan concludes, the Yorkshire club face a battle to secure his services permanently.
Solomon agrees new transfer
The success of loan players can be a double-edged sword, which Leeds are finding out with their shining star.
Solomon chipped in at crucial moments for Farke’s side this season and ended the campaign with 10 goals and 13 assists in all competitions.
| Manor Solomon’s 2024/25 Championship statistics | Total |
| Appearances | 39 |
| Goals | 10 |
| Assists | 12 |
| Big chances created | 21 |
| Accurate passes | 22.3 (88%) |
| Successful dribbles | 1.8 (61%) |
His time in Yorkshire piqued with a flurry of eye-catching performances that saw Leeds crowned league champions on the final day.
Considering his impact at Elland Road, it is unsurprising that there is news of interest in the Israeli.
Olympique Marseille are said to have sent scouts to watch Solomon at Elland Road on several occasions, according to Sky Sports.
They claim that the 25-year-old has been validated by their manager, Roberto De Zerbi, and that interest has been confirmed by the player’s entourage, who has agreed to the move should it happen.
Tottenham could now demand up to £16.8million.
Leeds must pull out all stops to sign Solomon
Solomon has been a player of immense quality for some time, but his ability has finally come to fruition at Elland Road.
The winger showed glimpses in the Premier League, but a meniscus injury prevented him from fulfilling his true potential at Spurs.
However, at Leeds, the Israeli international has been in scintillating form and has delivered in key moments.
Considering the impact he has made in Yorkshire, the club should do all it can to keep hold of him permanently.
Leeds are keen to retain Solomon and should not have an issue meeting the player’s valuation at Spurs.
However, Farke’s side are sure to face competition for the 25-year-old, in what would be regarded as a bargain for the club that lands him.
