The Evening Standard have revealed that Tottenham target Manor Solomon will make a decision on his future next week after his summer holiday.
Solomon spent the 2022-23 season on loan at Fulham after FIFA ruled that foreign players in Ukraine could suspend their contracts following Russia’s invasion of the country.
Although the winger did not establish himself as a regular starter for Marco Silva’s team, he delivered plenty of impressive performances as an impact substitute, even scoring in five straight games between February and March.
The Athletic reported last month that while Fulham wish to tie the Israeli international to a long-term contract this summer, Spurs were now leading the race for his signature.
Solomon is contracted to Shakhtar Donetsk until December (Transfermarkt) and despite UEFA extending the ruling and handing players unilateral power over their future, the Ukrainian club’s CEO Sergei Palkin was not pleased at the suggestion that Spurs could sign the winger.
Earlier this month, he threatened to sue Tottenham if they sign the 23-year-old on a free transfer, insisting it is unfair that Shakhtar would not be getting any sort of transfer fee for the player (ESPN).
