Fulham have reportedly opened talks with Shakhtar Donetsk over the transfer of Israel international Manor Solomon. According to Daily Telegraph reporter John Percy<\/a>, a deal to bring the 22-year-old winger to Craven Cottage would cost in the region of \u00a37 million.<\/p>\n

If the two clubs are able to agree a transfer, then Solomon would be expected to act as a direct replacement for Liverpool<\/a>-bound Fabio Carvalho, who will move to Anfield in the summer after having already completed a medical<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fulham Open Talks With Shakhtar Donetsk Over Deal to Sign Manor Solomon<\/h2>\n

Solomon Has Been a Regular in the Shakhtar Donetsk Attack<\/h3>\n

Solomon, a versatile winger who mainly operates on the left-hand side but is capable in playing in any of the forward positions behind a central striker, has established himself in Shakhtar Donetsk’s first-eleven. However, the Ukrainian Premier League is currently suspended due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Prior to the league’s suspension, Solomon made the left-wing position his own in Shakhtar’s side, and was heavily involved in the club’s Champions League campaign that featured games against Inter Milan and Real Madrid.<\/p>\n

The winger has managed 26 appearances in all competitions this season, with each of his four goals coming in league matches.<\/p>\n

Solomon is Expected to Fill the Gap Fabio Carvalho will Leave at Craven Cottage<\/h3>\n

Championship Leaders Fulham are hopeful of concluding a deal to bring Solomon to the club in order to replace Fabio Carvalho after the 19-year-old officially completes his transfer to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Replacing Carvalho will be no easy task, with the teenager having earned his move to Anfield off the back of a steller campaign in the English second division.<\/p>\n

Carvalho has contributed hugely towards Fulham’s charge towards promotion this season, scoring seven goals and providing a further seven assists in his 30 appearances so far this season.<\/p>\n
