Man City superstar brands Leeds attacker ‘excellent’ as Celtic are crushed by Whites for midfield signing
Manor Solomon, a recent addition to Leeds United, has impressed Kevin De Bruyne, who has given the Whites an idea of what to expect from the winger. Meanwhile, it has surfaced that the Whites defeated Celtic in the last moments to secure another summer addition.
In the last week of the transfer window, Solomon completed the third summer transfer of the West Yorkshire club and the north London team, having previously signed deals for Joe Rodon (£10 million to Leeds) and Archie Gray (£40 million to Tottenham). Solomon joined the Whites on a season-long loan deal from Tottenham.
After Alex Cairns, Joe Rothwell, Largie Ramazani, and the aforementioned Rodon arrived ahead of Solomon, the Israel winger became the sixth of eight new players to eventually arrive at Elland Road. The Championship team also finalized deals for Ao Tanaka and Isaac Schmidt on deadline day.
Arguably, Solomon represents the Whites’ greatest coup of all. The attacker, who previously scored both at home and away in the Champions League while playing for Shakhtar Donetsk, shined on his Leeds debut, taking home the man of the match award and heavily contributing to Mateo Joseph’s opening goal in a 2-0 victory over Hull.
With the ability to play all offensive positions, Solomon’s first season in north London was severely disrupted by a meniscus tear in his knee, keeping him out of action for almost nine months and limiting him to just six games across all competitions. Spurs decided to let Solomon go on loan.
De Bruyne hails Leeds new boy Solomon
With his goal contribution in his Whites debut, Solomon gave the team great hope for the upcoming campaign. If he can stay healthy throughout, Daniel Farke and company will consider themselves to have made a significant transfer acquisition.
Superstar De Bruyne of Manchester City is also well aware of Solomon’s abilities; on Friday night, when Belgium played Israel in the Nations League, he identified the player as a dangerman for his team.
De Bruyne scored twice as the Red Devils defeated the team 3-1.
But before the game, De Bruyne remarked of Solomon, saying, “I know Manor Solomon from the Premier League.” He formerly lived in Fulham, Tottenham, and Leeds.
inquired as to whether He’s capable of winning the Championship, “He has the qualities to play at this level,” De Bruyne continued. He’s a really good player.
Neil Redfearn, the former manager of Leeds, concurs, believing Solomon may be a second-tier cheat code.
