Manor Solomon (Hebrew: מנור סולומון; born (1999年07月24日)24 July 1999) is an Israeli professional footballer who plays as a winger or attacking midfielder for EFL Championship club Leeds United, on loan from Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, and the Israel national team.

Early and personal life

[edit ]

Solomon was born and raised in Kfar Saba, Israel,[3] to an Israeli family of Ashkenazi Jewish (Hungarian-Jewish), as well as of both Sephardi Jewish and Mizrahi Jewish (Iraqi-Jewish) descent.[4] [5] [6] His parents Ayala and Yossi Solomon are physical education teachers.[4] His mother and father met while studying together at the Ohalo College, both majored in physical education and minored in maritime studies. As a young married couple, their shared maritime training gave them the idea to choose the unique Hebrew first name Manor for their son, that also means "a boom" in sailing.[7] Solomon was enlisted for mandatory military service in December 2017, and has served in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).[8] [9] [10]

He also holds a Portuguese passport, on account of his Sephardi Jewish ancestors,[11] [12] which eases travel to certain European football leagues.[5] [6]

He has been in a relationship with his Israeli girlfriend Dana Voshina since 2018.[13] [14]

Solomon and his girlfriend were safely evacuated by the Israeli government from Ukraine (as a foreign player of Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk at the time), after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022. They were taken on a long car ride to the Polish border.[15]

Club career

[edit ]

Maccabi Petah Tikva

[edit ]

On 26 November 2016, at the age of 17, Solomon made his senior debut for the Israeli Premier League club Maccabi Petah Tikva, coming on as a 54th minute substitute against Hapoel Haifa that ended in a 2–1 away loss.[16] [17] On 28 January 2017, Solomon scored his first Israeli Premier League goal a 2–0 home victory against Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv.[18] [19]

Solomon was named in the "50 for the Future: UEFA.com's Ones to Watch for 2018–19".[20] [21]

Shakhtar Donetsk

[edit ]

On 11 January 2019, Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk signed 19-year-old Solomon from Israeli side Maccabi Petah Tikva in a transfer worth an initial 6ドル million, then the fifth-highest transfer fee for an Israeli footballer.[22] [23] [24]

After moving to Shakhtar, Solomon scored his first UEFA Champions League goal on 1 October 2019, in the 95th minute of an away match against Italian side Atalanta that ended in a 2–1 victory.[25] This made him the then youngest Israeli footballer ever to score in the Champions League, at the age of 20.[26] On 26 November, he scored the equalising goal in a 1–1 Champions League draw away at Manchester City.[25] [27]

Solomon continued his good Champions League form in the following season, scoring Shakhtar's third goal on 21 October 2020 in a 3–2 away victory over Spanish side Real Madrid.[28] On 1 December, he scored the second goal in the return fixture against Real Madrid, helping his team to a 2–0 home victory.[29]

He celebrated both his first and second braces in back-to-back Ukrainian Premier League matches, the first on 14 March 2021 in a 4–0 home victory over Desna Chernihiv⁣[30] [31] and the second on 21 March in a 3–2 defeat away to Lviv.[32] [33]

Loan to Fulham

[edit ]

On 25 July 2022, English Premier League club Fulham announced the signing of Solomon on a one-year loan, following a FIFA ruling concerning the Russo-Ukrainian War which allows foreign players affected by the war to suspend their contracts with Ukrainian clubs until 30 June 2023.[34] [35] [36] [37] Solomon started training with Fulham on 10 July, and became a registered player for the club on 1 August.[34] [36] [37] Upon his signing, he became the top-paid Israeli footballer, earning 1ドル.7 million per season, with performance bonuses that can increase his salary to 2ドル.5 million.[36] [37]

He made his debut on 6 August, coming on as a substitute in the second half of a 2–2 home draw against Liverpool.[38] On 7 January 2023, having recovered from a knee injury, he made his FA Cup debut for the club during their third round 2–0 away victory over Hull City, coming on as a second-half substitute.[39] [38] [40] On 11 February, Solomon scored his first goal for the club, coming on as a 72nd minute substitute in their Premier League match against Nottingham Forest, securing his team a 2–0 home win.[41] On 18 February, in the following league week, Solomon netted a late winning goal in Fulham's 1–0 away victory over Brighton & Hove Albion.[42] On 24 February he scored his third consecutive goal after coming on as a substitute, notching the equaliser in a 1–1 draw at home against Wolverhampton Wanderers.[43] He became the first Israeli to have scored in three consecutive Premier League matches since Ronny Rosenthal in 1992.[44] On 28 February he scored his fourth consecutive goal in a 2–0 FA Cup victory over Leeds United.[45] On 6 March 2023 he scored his fifth consecutive goal in a 3–2 away defeat to Brentford.[46]

Tottenham Hotspur

[edit ]

On 11 July 2023, Solomon signed for English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, as a free agent (thanks to an extended compensation year by FIFA ruling in favor of ex-Ukrainian leagues' foreign players);[47] with a five-year contract running until 30 June 2028.[48] [49] Solomon told The Athletic that he felt an immediate connection with Tottenham, especially after he had learnt about the London club's rich Jewish history.[50] [47]

He made his professional league debut for the club on 19 August, coming on as a late substitute for Dejan Kulusevski in a 2–0 home victory over Manchester United.[51] On 2 September, Solomon assisted Son Heung-Min twice in a 5–2 away win against newly promoted Burnley.[52]

Loan to Leeds United

[edit ]

On 27 August 2024, Solomon signed for EFL Championship club Leeds United on a season-long loan.[53] He made his debut four days later in a 2–0 home league victory over Hull City, and crossed the ball to the near post for Mateo Joseph's opening goal.[54] As of 2 January 2025, Solomon has scored three goals for Leeds United, including two goals against Swansea City on 24 November, and another on 21 December against Oxford United.[55]

International career

[edit ]

At youth international level, Solomon was capped 35 times and scored seven goals for Israel.[56] [57]

On 21 May 2017, at 17 years of age, Solomon was called-up to the Israeli senior side, although he did not appear for the team at the time.[58] [59] On 7 September 2018, Solomon made his senior debut for the Israeli squad at age 19, coming on as a 71st-minute substitute in a 2018–19 UEFA Nations League away match against Albania that ended in a 0–1 away loss.[60]

On 18 November 2020, Solomon scored his first goal for Israel's seniors, in the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League 1–0 home victory over Scotland.[61] The following 4 September, he scored again in a 5–2 home victory over Austria in 2022 World Cup qualifying.[62]

On 10 June 2022, during a 2022–23 UEFA Nations League away match against Albania, Solomon scored a brace, bringing Israel back from a 0–1 deficit to a 2–1 win in just 16 minutes.[63]
