Manor Solomon permanent transfer update emerges after Leeds loan spell
Manor Solomon
Leeds United are aiming to add attacking quality to their squad, and will also hope to keep Manor Solomon after a very productive season.
Solomon joined on loan from Tottenham last summer, and made a huge impact in the Championship as he came up with some vital goals.
Leeds are aiming to sign a striker this summer, but would also need another winger if they cannot keep Solomon for next season.
A deal will need to be agreed between Leeds and Spurs, but a return to Elland Road could be on the cards for the winger.

Tottenham to sell Solomon amid Leeds interest
Solomon is set to return to Tottenham at the official end of his loan spell, which did not include any buy clauses, but he could be in line for a return to Leeds.
The Athletic (3 June) have now reported that Solomon is a “prime” candidate to leave Spurs this summer, and the Lilywhites have no intention of keeping him at the club as they could also sell Richarlison in a big summer clear-out.

This could open the door for the 25-year-old to rejoin Leeds this summer, but finances could play a huge part in any deal.
A £15million price tag has previously been mooted, but given that Leeds have other priorities, this figure may need to come down to facilitate a deal.

Leeds need to strike bargain over Solomon
Solomon was very impressive in the Championship, but it remains to be seen whether that form can translate to the Premier League.
Leeds also have several other wing options including Largie Ramazani, Dan James and Willy Gnonto, meaning that a deal for Solomon is not much of a priority.
A goalkeeper and a striker will dominate Leeds’ attention in the transfer market, which means that keeping Solomon for continuity could be beneficial.
Given that the attacker clearly has no future at Spurs, Leeds need to ensure that if they do sign Solomon, they get him at a bargain price, or move on to other targets who may be more suited for the top flig
