Manor Solomon Joins West Ham and Will Wear Number 10 for First Time
Israeli winger Manor Solomon is set to join West Ham United, a club competing in England's Championship, marking a new chapter in his career. After a notable half-season at Fiorentina and extensive playing time during Tottenham Hotspur's summer training camp, Solomon did not secure a spot in Tottenham's squad. This move will be his second stint in the Championship. West Ham has officially announced his signing, and images have already surfaced showing Solomon wearing the number 10 jersey for the first time in his club career, a number he previously wore only in the national team.
Solomon will become the fourth Israeli player to represent West Ham, following Yaniv Katan, Eyal Berkovic, and Yossi Benayoun. The number 10 shirt at West Ham has a prestigious history, previously worn by notable players such as Lucas Paqueta, Jeff Hurst, who scored the winning goal in the 1966 World Cup final, John Hartson, Manuel Lanzini, and club legend Sir Trevor Brooking. This transfer highlights Solomon's rising profile in European football as he embarks on this new challenge.
