West Ham United are reportedly showing interest in Tottenham Hotspur winger Manor Solomon ahead of the January transfer window. According to reports from Spain, the London club have made contact about a potential move as the Israeli international’s future becomes increasingly uncertain during his loan spell at Villarreal.
Solomon joined Villarreal on loan from Tottenham in the summer, hoping to gain regular playing time and rebuild his form after a mixed spell at Leeds United last season. However, things have not gone according to plan for the 25-year-old, who has found it difficult to adapt to life in Spain.
Multiple reports from both Spanish and Israeli media suggest that the winger is unhappy with his current situation, particularly his lack of minutes on the pitch and difficulty settling into a new environment.
The Villarreal project appeared promising when Solomon arrived, but he has struggled to make a significant impact under the current management. His limited appearances have left him frustrated, and there are growing indications that he could cut his loan short.
Reports claim that Solomon has already spoken with Tottenham about the possibility of returning to North London in January, as his loan experience has not met expectations.
This situation has attracted attention from several clubs, including West Ham, who are said to have made an inquiry about his availability once the transfer window opens.
While it is unclear whether the Hammers are pursuing a loan deal or a permanent transfer, the fact that discussions have begun suggests genuine interest in bringing Solomon to the London Stadium.
West Ham are expected to be active in the upcoming window as they look to strengthen their squad under Nuno Espirito Santo. The team is currently assessing several attacking options, with a striker believed to be the top priority.
However, the club is also exploring opportunities to add more creativity and pace in wide areas, and Solomon’s situation has presented a potential opportunity to do just that.
For Tottenham, Solomon’s struggles are a concern, as they had hoped the winger would gain valuable experience and confidence in Spain. Instead, his lack of progress may prompt the club to reconsider their long-term plans for him.
While the player’s talent is not in doubt his dribbling and flair have been evident in glimpses during previous spells in England and Ukraine his recent challenges have raised questions about the right next step in his career.
If West Ham decide to move forward with a deal, it could provide Solomon with a chance to reset his form in a familiar environment and reunite with Premier League football, where he previously showed flashes of promise.
With the January window fast approaching, both clubs are now assessing their options, and Solomon’s future could soon take another turn as interest grows from within London.
