Leeds United has received information on the potential cost of securing Joe Rodon permanently from Tottenham in the upcoming summer, as reported by TEAMtalk. Despite the absence of a buy-option in Rodon’s current loan deal, a recent report (dated November 14) suggests that Spurs are willing to let the Welsh international depart permanently for a fee of approximately £20 million. The financial strength of Leeds puts them in an advantageous position, especially given their current position in the Championship and the promising outlook for promotion.
Acquiring Rodon permanently for £20 million would be a wise decision if their successful form continues, leading them back to the Premier League next season. Daniel Farke has recognized Rodon’s significance in the team, attributing it to his ball-playing abilities, defensive prowess, and physical attributes. Despite the potential benefits of sealing the deal in January, caution is advised due to the uncertainties of promotion.
As the summer transfer window approaches, strengthening the squad becomes imperative, and keeping an eye on this situation in the upcoming weeks and months is advised, with Leeds potentially considering the £20 million fee as a reasonable investment for the next season.
