Negotiations between London clubs West Ham and Tottenham regarding the transfer of winger Manor Solomon have been paused. Reports indicate that the parties could not reach an agreement on the financial terms of the deal.
West Ham, currently looking to reshape their squad following relegation to the Championship, is prepared to pay around 5 million pounds for the 27-year-old. However, the Hammers are reportedly unwilling to agree to the performance-based bonuses Tottenham is seeking, particularly clauses related to the club's potential return to the Premier League.
The situation remains fluid, as Fiorentina continues to monitor the player. The Italian club is still working on a potential move, though their current offer has also failed to meet Tottenham’s valuation.
Solomon joined Spurs as a free agent in the summer of 2023 after a successful loan stint at Fulham. During the 2025/26 season, the Ukrainian played on loan at Villarreal before finishing the campaign at Fiorentina, totaling 3 goals and 6 assists in 30 appearances across all competitions.
