Manor Solomon Back on Leeds’ Radar as Spurs Snub Sparks Transfer Twist
There’s been a real twist in the tale for Leeds United fans this summer—one that’s bringing a lot of optimism back to Elland Road. Manor Solomon, the Israeli winger who played such a huge role in last season’s stunning promotion campaign, might be making a return. And honestly, after everything that’s unfolded, this deal is starting to look more and more likely.
Solomon was electric during his loan spell at Leeds last season. Across 41 appearances, he contributed 23 goal involvements—10 goals and 13 assists. He wasn’t just productive; he was decisive. In fact, it was Solomon who scored the last-gasp winner that sealed the Championship title for Leeds in dramatic fashion. So naturally, after such a season, everyone assumed a permanent deal would follow.

But after returning to Tottenham this summer, Solomon wanted to give it another go in North London. And with Thomas Frank newly in charge at Spurs, it looked like he’d have the chance to impress. That was until a press conference in Seoul changed the script. When Frank was asked about replacing Son Heung-min, who’s now asked to leave Spurs, Solomon’s name wasn’t even mentioned. Instead, Frank talked up Brennan Johnson, Wilson Odobert, and Mathys Tel. The message was pretty clear: Solomon isn’t really in his plans.
That snub, as harsh as it seemed, might be just the break Leeds needed. Transfer insider Graeme Bailey revealed Spurs are now open to selling Solomon—potentially for less than the original £20 million asking price. Leeds, who were already interested, suddenly have renewed belief. And it’s not just the fans who are excited—Daniel Farke reportedly sees this as a dream signing to round out his attacking lineup.
There’s a sense now that the stars are aligning. Solomon loved his time at Leeds. He fit the system, had the fans behind him, and was clearly comfortable under Farke’s management. With Tottenham no longer a viable option and Leeds still needing attacking reinforcements after missing out on Igor Paixao, this move makes more sense than ever. Add in the fact that Solomon's wages and personal terms aren’t expected to be an issue, and all that remains is for the 49ers to make the call and get it done.
It’s not official yet, but make no mistake—if Leeds can pull this off for under £20 million, it might be one of the best value deals of the summer. For now, fans will be watching closely… because a return for Manor Solomon could be the fairytale ending this transfer saga deserves.
