West Ham Signs Israeli Midfielder Manor Solomon for £5 Million
West Ham United has finalized the transfer of Israeli midfielder Manor Solomon from Tottenham Hotspur for approximately £5 million, with an additional £2 million in potential bonuses. Solomon is expected to sign a four-year contract with West Ham, including an option to extend until June 2030. The deal concludes recent negotiations between West Ham and Tottenham, as confirmed by leading transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano. Solomon will undergo medical examinations before officially joining the club.
This move marks another chapter in Solomon's career in English football. He previously played for Fulham starting in summer 2022, moved to Tottenham in 2023, and spent the 2024/2025 season with Leeds United, helping them secure promotion back to the Premier League. His international club experience also includes four seasons at Shakhtar Donetsk and loan spells at Villarreal and Fiorentina.
West Ham, relegated from the Premier League last season, will begin their Championship campaign with an away match against Burnley, another relegated team, on the upcoming Sunday. The club recently won 3-1 against Portsmouth in the first round of the League Cup. Solomon's arrival is expected to strengthen West Ham's squad as they aim to return to the Premier League.
