Tottenham Hotspur seems willing to approve the permanent transfer of central defender Joe Rodon to Leeds United in the upcoming summer, as reported by Football Insider.
The Welsh international began the season with Tottenham under the new management of Ange Postecoglou but soon found himself surplus to requirements.
Rodon made a move to Leeds in early August and has since become a regular in their defense as they aim to secure a return to the Premier League after their relegation last season.
The report suggests that Leeds, currently in second place in the Championship behind Leicester City, will need to pay a transfer fee ranging from £10 to £15 million to acquire the services of the former Swansea City player, especially if they secure promotion to the Premier League.
Having enjoyed his time at Elland Road, where there is a notable Welsh contingent, Rodon is reportedly keen on securing a permanent switch away from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Considering Rodon was allowed to leave on loan, his permanent departure this summer seems likely, especially given that he moved ahead of fellow Tottenham defenders Davinson Sanchez and Eric Dier in seeking regular game time under Postecoglou.
Postecoglou, in his managerial efforts, has opted to bring in players like Micky van de Ven and Radu Dragusin, both known for their speed and ball-playing abilities, whereas Rodon is perceived as a more traditional center-half. This aligns with the strategic direction Postecoglou is taking in building the squad for the future.
