Tottenham demand £5m more than English club are offering for winger
The race for one Tottenham Hotspur winger is now heating up, and one newly promoted Premier League side only have to iron out a small difference with the North London club to land the player.
Spurs will be delighted with how Manor Solomon has performed on loan at Leeds, with the winger putting himself in the shop window by playing a key role in helping the Yorkshire club win the Championship title and secure promotion to the Premier League.
It thus comes as no surprise that Leeds are now working on a deal to sign Solomon permanently ahead of their return to the top-flight.
However, according to various sources, Daniel Farke’s men are expected to face competition domestically, as well as from abroad, for Solomon, as the race for the Tottenham man heats up.
Leeds hoping to bring down Tottenham asking price for Manor Solomon
TBR Football have now confirmed that Tottenham will allow the 25-year-old to depart this summer, with the proceeds from his sale going down as pure profit on the PSR front since he was signed as a free agent.
The report confirms that Leeds are keen to add Solomon to their squad on the back of his exemplary performances this season.
However, it is revealed that while Tottenham Hotspur want £20m for the wide-man, Leeds are hoping to get him for closer to £15m.
The outlet backs up what we have heard from other sources over recent days by naming Marseille and Everton as Leeds’ main competitors in the transfer race, but the Spurs man is thought to prefer a switch to Elland Road.
Message coming out of Leeds about Solomon is clear
On the back of his impressive showing on loan, Leeds fans on social media are desperate for Solomon to remain at the club.
The Leeds head coach has also sent some positive messages recently, with Daniel Farke hinting that Leeds had begun working on a deal to sign Solomon.
It would appear that the newly promoted club are determined to sign the winger, but Spurs will be hoping that an ensuing bidding war can push up the price.
