Official: Shakhtar's Manor Solomon joins Fulham
Fulham FC has confirmed that an agreement has been reached with Manor Solomon to sign the player on a deal until 30 June 2023.
Following a FIFA ruling that allows Ukraine-based players – who are not Ukrainian nationals – to suspend their contract, Solomon exercised this option, prior to agreeing terms with Fulham.
After the suspension of the contract, FIFA issued an updated regulation that states that players in this situation cannot be registered until 1 August 2022. As a result, Fulham FC will be applying for an international transfer certificate for Solomon on that date.
“I'm really happy and delighted to be here at Fulham and I can't wait to feel the special atmosphere at Craven Cottage,” Solomon said. “There are some great players here and I am determined to help Fulham achieve its goals for the year. I also want to send a big hug to my friends and supporters in Ukraine. You are in my thoughts.”
I’m very happy and excited to have signed for @FulhamFC. It’s a great privilege to be joining the best league in the world and I can’t wait to get started.💪🏻⚽️
