Only 24 hours since one of West Ham’s key transfers was deemed ‘stalled’, it seems there are claims that the block between the two clubs has been overcome and the player will be signing ‘tomorrow’.
Exciting if true, but cautious Hammers fans know only too well not to get carried away until the player is pictured in the shirt.
Well known is the Irons’ need for a new winger to replace Crysencio Summerville and if the report is true, it is going to be Manor Solomon who pulls on the Claret and Blue shirt to take Summerville’s place next season.
Tottenham’s winger is a West Ham top target – reportedly the ‘deal is done’
According to ynetnews.com, (not a source we’ve used before, to be honest..) agreement between the Hammers and Tottenham has now been reached:
Soccer: Manor Solomon’s Transfer to West Ham Finalized
“Israeli national team star Manor Solomon will transfer tomorrow to West Ham from England’s second division, thus ending his three-year tenure at Tottenham.
The transfer fee could increase if West Ham is promoted to the Premier League at the end of the season, in which case it would reach just under £10 million—about half of what Tottenham had hoped to sell Solomon for.“
The last report from a ‘recognised’ source – yesterday’s NYTimes – suggested that the talks were ‘currently off for financial reasons‘ so if the two clubs have reached agreement it’ll trickle through to the mainstream media soon enough. I’d just treat it as a ‘rumour’ for now.
One to tick off ‘to get list’ (that makes 3).
4 to go maybe 5 as it’s been suggested there are two incoming strikers.
Thomas / Parrott / Engels / Disasi / a n other striker.
Perhaps just being greedy.
Jumping the gun
