Tottenham Hotspur are gearing up to sell Joe Rodon, a defender currently loaned out to Leeds United, during the upcoming summer transfer window.
Rodon, who has been on loan at Leeds since last summer, has expressed his desire to stay with the club, where he has had a successful stint. According to Pete O’Rourke on Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, Leeds are keen on making Rodon’s move permanent due to his consistent and impactful performances this season.
O’Rourke highlights Rodon’s crucial role in Leeds’ push for promotion to the Premier League, as they currently sit 3rd in the Championship standings, closely trailing the league leaders.
As Rodon is not part of Ange Postecoglou’s plans at Tottenham, reports suggest that the club is looking for a transfer fee in the range of £12-£15 million to facilitate his departure in the summer.
This potential move would allow Rodon to continue his career at Leeds United and potentially return to the Premier League next season.
Joe Rodon’s Impact at Leeds United:
The Welsh centre-back has been a key figure in Daniel Farke’s squad, featuring in the starting line-up for 39 out of his 40 appearances in the Championship, along with 4 starts in the FA Cup. He has played a significant role in their commendable push for direct promotion, with Leeds currently sitting 3rd in the Championship, trailing 1st place Ipswich Town by only 2 points and 2nd placed Leicester City by 1 point.
