Manor Solomon has had a very productive loan at Leeds, by all accounts he has been one of their key players this season and has returned 9 goals and 11 assists in 37 league games.
Is he a player we can use at Spurs next season or should we cash in, apparently Leeds are interested in making his move permanent.
There was no option to buy included in his loan, but surely we can put a £20m (or thereabouts) price on his head?
Levy out.

The squad is crying out for a truly effective LW. Son's time needs managing, as does Moore, but for different reasons. Not sure Tel is the answer or a player who wants to be played wide, long term. Odobert can play from both wings, him BJ and Deki provide ample options for the right side.
We should go for a quality LW but if we don't, or if we miss out on Europe and are unable to attract/afford who want, then may be Solomon will be a good zero cost option. He'd effectively replacing Werner in the squad and the expectation would be his output would be much better and his wages are probably £100k less.
But if we are targeting an Eze type player then Solomon needs cashing in on and the likes of Moore, Son, New LW, Odobert can all provide options in that position.
This summer, my key targets would be New Striker to replace an outgoing Richarlison, new LW as heir to Son, new CM to provide some energy and physicality in the midfield.
My preferences would be Cardoso (we have a £21m deal lined up), Eze and Delap. With Richi, Werner, Bissouma, Solomon, Gil, Veliz, Reguilon, Tel all leaving the squad. We also have Hojbjergs £17m obligation to buy going through this summer.

If we happen to win the Europa, this should open a few more doors as to who we could sign and we could aim a little higher. Potentially a Jonathan David for that LW position?

What is this obsession people have with David. He's seemingly been available for every window for years. He's in his last year of his deal now so will be free this summer. His output is about 1 in 2 in the French league.
I would not see him as a top option, more likely a cheaper option should we need to spend wisely without Europe money.

It's slightly better than a 1 in 2, and he's a winger not a striker so the numbers are still very good. Has been doing it for country and in CL as well. Good age too. Seems like a decent fit.
What about Mika Biereth? Same league, just turned 22, impressive numbers. Scandinavian, tall and pretty quick. Only trouble is his ties to Arsenal.

That's beside the point. It's whether our scouts fancy him.
The best clue for Spurs that he could make a successful transition from the French league to us is that he isn't called Jonathan N'David.

I am always suspicious of people whose name is made up of 2 surnames, so its a no from me on Jonathan David.
What about that Frankfurt striker, he looked quality and looks like he could probably play from wide too, bit like Isak used to.
