Leeds United are rumored to have the opportunity to secure Joe Rodon permanently from Tottenham in the upcoming summer if they make it to the Premier League.
With playoffs looming, Leeds finds themselves in a precarious position with a tight race for promotion. If they manage to make it through the playoffs and win at Wembley, it could open the door for a permanent deal for Rodon.
Reports suggest that Leeds have an option-to-buy clause in Rodon’s current deal, giving them hope of securing his services if they are promoted. Despite conflicting reports about the existence of this clause, if it does exist, Leeds can exercise it upon promotion.
Originally pursuing Rodon for a £15million permanent fee, Leeds convinced Tottenham to agree to a loan deal instead. With Rodon’s contract expiring in 2025, the potential for a permanent transfer at a lower cost is plausible.
Regardless of the price, if Leeds secures promotion, signing Rodon permanently will be a top priority. The financial aspect will play a significant role in determining the feasibility of the deal, but securing Rodon for a lower fee would be a smart move for the club.
