Manor Solomon is expected to be given a chance to prove himself to Thomas Frank at Tottenham in pre-season.
The winger spent last season on loan at Leeds, where he enjoyed an impressive campaign, scoring 10 goals and delivering 13 assists to help the club to promotion back to the Premier League.
GettyManor Solomon has a number of options heading into the new season[/caption]Solomon’s exploits at Elland Road have seen him heavily linked with a permanent move, with his long-term future at Spurs in doubt.
It was reported in May that Leeds would have to compete with Ligue 1 giants Marseille for the Israeli’s permanent signature, who had joined the race for him.
Despite speculation surrounding Solomon this summer, The Sun previously claimed former head coach Ange Postecoglou was keen to give the 25-year-old a second chance in pre-season.
But after the Australian was sacked just over a week ago, this again threw Solomon’s future into question.
Spurs have since moved to replace Postecoglou with Thomas Frank, who appears to share a similar view to his predecessor.
talkSPORT understands the newly appointed ex-Brentford boss likes what he sees of Solomon and will give him a chance to prove himself over the summer.
Solomon has been on the north Londoners’ books for nearly two years now, having joined from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2023.
However, he has made just six appearances during this time, with his debut season hampered by injury.
Solomon’s last game for Tottenham came in a 2-1 win over Liverpool in September 2023, where he featured for 21 minutes off the bench.
His return to the fold at Spurs will come as a boost to the club, with several of their prospects on the wing not yet confirmed.

talkSPORT also understands Tottenham have stepped up their interest in in-demand Brentford winger Bryan Mbeumo following Frank‘s appointment.
The update on Solomon’s future will come as a blow to Leeds, who would have hoped to keep hold of him in the Premier League.
He made 39 appearances in the Championship last term, 31 of which were starts, and scored a late winner against Plymouth on the final day of the season that clinched the Lilywhites the Championship title.
Aside from his handful of Spurs appearances, Solomon’s previous top-flight experience came on loan at Fulham in the 2022/23 season.
He featured 25 in all competitions that term, scoring five goals, with his exploits catching the eye of Tottenham, who were able to sign him on a free contract from parent club Shakhtar.

Solomon began his career in Israel with Maccabi Petah Tivka, with his talent catching the eye of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.
After joining Shakhtar in 2019, he continued to impress, netting 22 goals in 105 games altogether, including an equaliser against the Citizens in a Champions League tie in his first year at the club.
He reportedly drew interest from Arsenal in January 2021, only for him to later end up at their bitter north London rivals.
