Frank wowed by Manor Solomon in Tottenham twist at Hotspur Way

Tottenham are hoping to start fresh this summer, after a difficult season in the Premier League.

The sacking of Ange Postecoglou and the appointment of Thomas Frank, despite bringing the Europa League trophy to North London, shows Tottenham are serious about going to the next level.

The transfer window is likely to reflect this as a high volume of incomings and outgoings are expected from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

One player whose future has been appearing uncertain is Israeli winger Manor Solomon.

Solomon to have minutes in pre-season campaign

Solomon had a big impact on his season-long loan at Leeds United in the 2024/25 season, scoring 10 goals and, crucially, the strike that secured their Championship title.

His impressive performance has attracted interest from other Premier League clubs, including Everton.

Leeds United have been linked with bringing the 25-year-old to Elland Road on a permanent deal, which could cost around £10million.

However, reports have suggested Solomon will remain on White Hart Lane next season, despite transfer interest.

In a recent update under Frank, Solomon is set to start pre-season with Tottenham, as reported by Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri on X (14 June).

Frank is impressed with Solomon and wants to check out his ability in the pre-season campaign, as he is expected to play for Tottenham this season.

This update suggests the new direction under Frank could see Solomon remain in the first team squad, if he performs well in pre-season.

Tottenham’s pre-season is crucial

While the ending of Tottenham’s 17-year trophy drought was an outstanding achievement this season, their performance in the Premier League was one to forget.

Now that Frank has been confirmed as manager, it leaves a crucial pre-season campaign for the Danish manager to translate his tactical ideas into the playing field.

The pre-season kicks off in Hong Kong, 31 July, with a historic North London derby against Arsenal, which hasn’t left too many fans happy.

The Lilywhites are confirmed to also play Premier League side Newcastle in Seoul on 3 August.

After returning from Asia, Spurs will reunite with Harry Kane as they travel to the Allianz Arena for a friendly with Bayern Munich.

Tottenham certainly have a difficult set of pre-season fixtures ahead of them, with the perfect opportunity for Frank to assess both his tactics and the squad in practice before the challenging season.

It is down to Solomon to grasp his chance with both hands.
