Journalist Graham Smyth believes that Joe Rodon is likely to return to Leeds United, citing two reasons why the English side are favourites to sign the Tottenham player.Rodon had a great season at Leeds last year, and Smyth thinks that the defender will want to return to the club where he felt at home. Additionally, Rodon’s friends from the Welsh national team, such as Archie Gray, are still at Leeds, which could be a draw for him.Smyth’s comments come despite reports that newly promoted Premier League clubs, including Leicester City, are interested in signing Rodon.
However, Smyth believes that Leeds have a strong case to make to Rodon, including his desire to finish what he started at the club and help them get promoted to the Premier League.While Rodon’s return to Leeds is not a done deal, Smyth’s comments suggest that the club has a good chance of signing him permanently. This would be a significant coup for Leeds, who are looking to strengthen their defense this summer.
However, some fans are skeptical of Smyth’s claims, with one commenter calling it “wishful thinking.” They point out that Rodon may prefer to stay in the Premier League and that Leeds would need to sell players to afford him.Despite this, Smyth’s comments will give Leeds fans hope that Rodon could return to the club. With the transfer window set to be a busy one, Leeds will be keen to get their business done early and secure the signings they need to challenge for promotion.In other news, Tottenham have agreed to sell Dele Alli to Everton, according to Fabrizio Romano. The transfer is subject to a medical and would be a permanent deal.
This comes as a surprise to some fans, who thought Alli would be a key player for Spurs next season.Meanwhile, Chelsea are willing to pay over £50m to sign Teun Koopmeiners, a midfielder who has also been linked with Tottenham. This could spark a bidding war between the two clubs, with Koopmeiners likely to be a key player for either team.Finally, Manchester United are ready to abandon their pursuit of Jarrad Branthwaite, a defender who has also been linked with Tottenham.
This could be a blow to United’s transfer plans, but could also mean that Tottenham have a clearer path to signing Branthwaite.Overall, the transfer window is shaping up to be a busy one, with many clubs looking to strengthen their squads. Leeds fans will be hoping that Rodon returns to the club, while Tottenham fans will be keeping an eye on the latest developments in the transfer market.
