Near the beginning, he states that Shakhtar had &#8220;contested the changes to Annex 7&#8221; which allowed their foreign players to depart. Ultimately the Court of Arbitration for Sport sided against them. Now Sergei Palkin, their chief executive, is communicating with Tottenham&#8217;s Director of Football Administration and Governance Rebecca Caplehorn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/10\/01\/manchester-united-transfer-defender-top-targets\/\" target=\"_self\">\u2018Next Top Signing\u2019: Manchester United Identify Top Targets Including \u2018Monster\u2019 Player To Bolster Defence<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Champions League club&#8217;s executive stated that they were in &#8220;a negotiation process.&#8221; An offer of compensation for Solomon is no longer a hope at this point, it is an expectation. Initial talks were held when the teams met for a friendly match in August. Shakhtar paid over \u00a35.6 million for the Israeli talent, and are hoping to get that back from Tottenham for the young goal-scorer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch:\u00a0<\/strong>How Postecoglou replaced Harry Kane<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"After Harry Kane - How Ange Postecoglou Has REVOLUTIONISED Tottenham Hotspur\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5FI3aQ-hR6w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Solomon in England<\/h3>\n<p>Solomon&#8217;s first stint in England, with Fulham, brought great success which earned him his move to Tottenham. Five goals in 24 matches impressed multiple Premier League fixtures. The Lilywhites ultimately put forth the most effort and secured his signature for five years. So far, the Israeli has had limited appearances as he adjusts to Ange Postecoglou&#8217;s playing style.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/10\/02\/arsenal-pedro-neto-transfer-links-discussed\/\" target=\"_self\">\u2018Could Be One To Watch\u2019: Fabrizio Romano Clarifies Arsenal Links To \u2018Incredible\u2019 Star<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shakhtar may be in European football this year, but Tottenham&#8217;s challenge for the domestic title is going to be unlike anything the young Solomon has ever played for.
