Agent confirms transfer condition that will stop Tottenham banking £8.7m this summer

Tottenham winger Manor Solomon started the season on loan at Villarreal before moving to Fiorentina, where he has been joined by Fabio Paratici, in January

Manor Solomon’s agent Shlomy Ben Ezra has expressed his delight at the winger's loan to Fiorentina - which he hopes will become permanent this summer.

The Israel international spent the first half of the season on loan at Villarreal in Spain but did not earn the playing time he desired.

Instead, he's now joined La Viola and the deal could become permanent at the end of the season.

However, Ben Ezra has revealed that Solomon will definitely return to Spurs if Fiorentina are relegated from Serie A (currently 18th).

He hopes Solomon will stay in Florence permanently, telling Sport 5: “Fiorentina was a good choice. You can see that he has played significant minutes in the last two games.

"They have an option to buy him, he lives in an amazing place, so the decision was very easy.

“He signed for half a season with an option to buy for €10m [£8.7m]. If they are relegated, he will leave. We hope that Fiorentina will remain in the league and we will move on. By today’s standards, I think €10m is a bargain for Manor Solomon.”

Solomon is already off the mark for Fiorentina after recently scoring in their 2-1 defeat to Napoli.

He has started their past two matches and has also been joined in Florence by Fabio Paratici, who recently left his role as Tottenham's sporting director.

Paratici only returned to Spurs in an official working capacity in October following the conclusion of his 30-month FIFA ban.

The Italian chief has been speaking this week following his Fiorentina unveiling and some feel he's already taken a swipe at Spurs' owners.

He said when discussing his new role: “In my case, Fiorentina have a serious set of owners, a very serious set of owners who are of great value.

“I’d like to thank Tottenham, my former club, for the opportunity they granted me to join Fiorentina, return to Italy and the opportunity to spend five wonderful years in the Premier League.

“It was an incredible experience. They made me feel at home and stood by me in tough times so I feel obliged to thank Tottenham.”

Paratici has reportedly penned a five-year contract at the Stadio Franchi as he looks to help La Viola avoid relegation to Serie B.
