Manor Solomon is steadily finding his feet at Leeds United and appears to be witnessing a growth in popularity among the fans.
The Israeli winger joined the Whites on loan in the summer transfer window after being involved in a lot of controversy last season for his openly Pro-Israel stance on the ongoing conflict with Palestine.
He shared a number of posts on his Instagram slamming the Palestine forces, even accusing them of killing their own people.
Tottenham Hotspur somehow managed to defuse the situation then and opted to send him on loan for the 2024/25 season to keep him out of the spotlight.
Well, some Leeds United fans definitely don’t want that to happen.
Solomon recently scored his first goals for the Whites since joining them, bagging a brace to power their recent thrilling 4-3 win over Swansea City in the Championship.
Soon after doing so, his popularity has surged among the Leeds faithful, and some fans seem to be openly supporting his political views.
A clip has recently started going viral on social media showing a brand new Manor Solomon chant created by the Leeds supporters.
At a pub, some of the Whites’ supporters could be heard belting out a chant showing their admiration for Solomon’s playing style and how the 25-year-old winger can torment defenders with his movement.
The chant goes something like this:
‘What’s good, what’s fine
Manor Solomon’s on my mind
And he hates Palestine
Sinking down here
Dipping down Picking up
Running past the fence
Scoring one or two
What’s good what’s right
What’s mine what’s wise
Manor Solomon’s on my mind
And he hates Palestine
Speaking do the day
Now I’m getting new
Going past the fence
Scoring one or two
What’s good, what’s fine
Blood’s from the Bloodline
Manor Solomon’s on my mind’
A chant for Solomon, who has two goals and one assist in 11 games for Leeds and has struggled for fitness all season long, comes as a surprise.
The song is obviously a way for a few Leeds fans to try to demean Palestine and openly show their Pro-Israel stance.
A lot of their own have now come forward and slammed this act of the few –
