# Tottenham transfer news as major decision on attacker to be made in ’48-72 hrs’

**Tottenham Hotspur need to sell well in the coming days to add to their squad further in the back end of the transfer window.**

It’s not to say they need the funds, but Roberto De Zerbi will look to trim his squad to finalise the 25-man list with eight homegrown players.

A handful of players have already left in recent weeks, while [Mason Melia and Mikey Moore are also in talks to depart Tottenham on loan](https://readtottenham.com/2026/08/02/fabrizio-romano-confirms-mikey-moore-leaving-tottenham/).

Manor Solomon has been a surprise package in pre-season in terms of how much game time he has got.

But if reports are to be believed, he could be returning to the Championship.

## Manor Solomon in talks to leave Tottenham permanently

Earlier this summer, Solomon’s agent confirmed that a permanent Tottenham departure would be his client’s priority.

And now, Luca Bendoni reports that West Ham are in talks to sign the attacker, with a final decision to be made within the next 72 hours.

“West Ham are exploring a potential permanent deal for Manor Solomon from Tottenham, as per other sources,” wrote Bendoni on X.

“Parties expect to know if a deal can progress within 48-72 hrs.

Solomon’s performances in pre-season have been quite good, but it’s clear he doesn’t have a future at Tottenham. His recent displays have made him popular in the shop window, which will allow the club to get a decent fee for him.
