Tottenham Hotspur’s winger is making strides toward a comeback from a prolonged injury spell.

The summer signing for Spurs has been sidelined since early October, nursing a meniscus injury in his right knee sustained during training, which required surgery. Missing over three months of action, Solomon’s absence impacted the team significantly.

Nevertheless, the Evening Standard reports that the 24-year-old eyes a return to Tottenham’s first-team training in the upcoming week. His sights are set on making a comeback in the FA Cup fourth-round clash against Manchester City at the end of the month.

Solomon’s imminent return serves as a considerable boost for Spurs’ manager, Ange Postecoglou, currently grappling with the absence of Son Heung-min, representing South Korea in the Asian Cup, and Ivan Perisic, sidelined until his contract expires.

Arriving on a free transfer from Shakhtar Donetsk, Solomon swiftly made an impact, featuring in six games (including three starts) before his injury. He quickly endeared himself to teammates and coaching staff at Hotspur Way, showcasing his talent and adaptability.

“He’s definitely won over his team-mates with his ability and what he’s doing in training. He’s an exciting young player and another one of that group,” praised Postecoglou during pre-season.

Solomon’s injury woes aren’t unfamiliar, having faced a similar setback while on loan at Fulham last season. Despite missing the first half due to a knee injury, he showcased promise and potential in the latter part of the campaign.

With the dawn of 2024 and Solomon’s impending return to fitness, there’s a sense of anticipation surrounding his comeback, hoping to witness his impact once back on the pitch.
