Newly promoted Hull City have emerged as surprise rivals to West Ham United in the race to sign Tottenham forward Manor Solomon, according to The i Paper.
While West Ham currently lead the chase for the 27-year-old Israel international, Hull City are actively monitoring the situation as they seek high-calibre attacking reinforcements ahead of the new campaign.
Solomon is widely expected to secure a permanent move away from North London before the transfer window closes.
With head coach Roberto De Zerbi prioritising the recruitment of a marquee left-winger—targeting high-profile names like Manchester City’s Savinho and Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo—Solomon does not feature in De Zerbi’s long-term tactical plans at Hotspur Way.
West Ham have identified Solomon as a prime candidate to strengthen their wide options following Crysencio Summerville’s big-money move to Al-Hilal. Solomon’s representatives have confirmed a clear preference for a permanent transfer over another loan, making West Ham’s interest particularly compelling.
However, Hull City’s sudden entry into the frame presents an intriguing alternative. The Tigers are eager to offer Solomon guaranteed starting minutes and a central leadership role in their frontline as they navigate their top-flight return.
Having previously delivered 10 goals and 13 assists during a successful spell in England with Leeds United, Solomon’s proven pedigree makes him an ideal target for Hull’s recruitment team.
Tottenham are reportedly open to sanctioning a departure if their valuation of around £20m is met. With Spurs eager to streamline their squad to fund new arrivals, direct negotiations between interested parties are expected to accelerate in the coming days.
