Manor Solomon is set to complete his move from Tottenham Hotspur to Leeds United on Tuesday.

The 25-year-old winger is joining the West Yorkshire club on a season-long loan, which does not include an option to turn the deal permanent. There was late interest from elsewhere but Solomon is set to join Leeds.

The Athletic reported on Saturday that Solomon was to undergo a medical ahead of completing his move. Solomon remains under contract with Tottenham until June 2028 having signed a five-year deal when joining from Shakhtar Donetsk last summer.

Solomon had enjoyed a productive 2022-23 season on loan at Fulham from Shakhtar, scoring five goals in 24 appearances. He then signed for Spurs as a free agent but featured only six times before sustaining a season-ending right knee injury in October.

Solomon returned to action for Spurs during pre-season but was not named in Ange Postecoglou’s matchday squads for either of their opening two Premier League matches. Postecoglou’s side have also added to their winger depth with the signing of Wilson Odobert from Burnley in a deal worth up to £30million ($39.6m).

Tottenham and Leeds have previosly done business this summer with Archie Gray joining the north London club and Joe Rodon heading the other way, having spent last season on loan at the Championship side. As well as Rodon, Leeds have signed Largie Ramazani, Jayden Bogle, Alex Cairns and Joe Rothwell this summer. They have, though sold Georginio Rutter, Crysencio Summerville and Glen Kamara, as well as Gray.

Daniel Farke’s side won their first match of the season on Friday as they beat Sheffield Wednesday 2-0. They are back in action on Saturday when they welcome Hull City to Elland Road. Spurs, meanwhile, travel to Newcastle United on Sunday for their next fixture.
