Tottenham Hotspur defender Joe Rodon is enjoying a great season on loan at Leeds United.

So much so, in fact, that Spurs could potentially demand £20million to sell him, according to Alasdair Gold.

Tottenham signed Rodon back in 2020 in a deal . However, he has struggled to make a mark at Spurs.

This has led to two loan stints away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the first one tricky and the latter superb.

Spurs sent Rodon out on loan to French side Rennes last season, but they didn’t take up the option to buy at the end of the campaign.

The Wales international joined Leeds this season, and he’s finally showing the form that made him such a star at Swansea City.

Gold, speaking on the , believes that Tottenham could demand more than what they paid for if he helps Leeds back into the Premier League.

“I think Joe Rodon’s going to go for a fair whack of money,” he said. “I think this is exactly what Spurs want from these kind of loan deals.

“Especially with having no option on the deal, Leeds, Rodon could be up there. You know, he could be like £15m upwards.

“Maybe even if he is incredible and gets them up, you could be looking at £20m. Spurs could end up making a profit on him.”

Tottenham will be buzzing over how things have panned out for Rodon this season. His efforts have helped Leeds challenge for automatic promotion.

Who knows, Spurs could well decide to keep the defender, but based on what Gold has said, it looks as though they’ve made their mind up on him.

It’s great to see the “phenomenal” Rodon finally enjoying his football and winning plaudits after a difficult time at N17.
