Joe Rodon, a defender currently on loan at Leeds United, is set to be let go by Tottenham Hotspur during the forthcoming summer transfer window.
After spending the summer on loan at Elland Road, Rodon has stated that he wants to stay at Leeds, where he has had a great run of play.
Given Rodon‘s steady and significant performances this season, Pete O’Rourke of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast speculates that Leeds is interested in making Rodon’s move permanent.
Rodon has been essential in Leeds‘ attempt to gain promotion to the Premier League, as O’Rourke highlights. The team is now third in the Championship rankings, only behind the league leaders.
Since Rodon is not part of Ange Postecoglou‘s plans at Tottenham, rumour has it that the team is looking to move him out of town in the summer for a fee between £12 and £15.
Rodon would be able to stay at Leeds United and maybe return to the Premier League the following season with this move.

He has been instrumental in their successful battle for a straight promotion. As of right now, they are just two points behind Ipswich Town in first position and one point behind Leicester City in second place in the Championship.
