Overview
- Multiple outlets report that Tottenham and West Ham agreed in principle to a permanent transfer on Saturday for an initial £5 million fee with £2 million in add‑ons and a 10% sell‑on clause, with a medical booked ahead of a three‑year contract and option to 2030.
- Talks had stalled earlier in the window over promotion‑linked bonus structure but sources say the clubs resolved that dispute to reach the current package.
- Solomon made only a handful of competitive appearances for Tottenham since 2023 because of injuries and loans but impressed on loan at Leeds, where he helped win promotion, making him an attractive Championship option for West Ham.
- Tottenham have cleared the move as part of a summer squad reshaping to reduce surplus players and wage commitments while recouping a fee and retaining future upside through the sell‑on clause.
- The transfer remains subject to medical clearance and formal club announcements and, if completed, would give Solomon a fresh opportunity to revive his career while adding an experienced attacking option to West Ham’s promotion campaign.
