‘I wonder’ – Alasdair Gold says Ipswich Town manager is a big fan of Spurs defender

Alasdair Gold wonders whether Ipswich Town could make a move for Joe Rodon this summer as the club’s manager Kieran McKenna is a big fan of the Tottenham defender.

Joe Rodon will likely leave Tottenham this summer

While Rodon looks nailed on to leave Spurs this summer, having just a year left to run on his contract, it is anybody’s guess at the moment where the centre-back would end up.

The Welshman might have preferred to seal a permanent move to Leeds on the back of his impressive loan spell at Elland Road but that proposed transfer is now in major doubt after the club failed to win promotion to the top-flight.

It was reported two weeks ago by The Daily Mail reported two weeks ago that Daniel Farke’s side would need to sell some players before they can buy this summer.

The club need to offset losses of over £100m and a deal to sign Rodon is thus unlikely for the Championship side.

Ipswich Town’s Kieran McKenna likes Joe Rodon

Gold has now remarked that newly promoted Ipswich could make a move for the 26-year-old, who McKenna is a fan of.

The journalist said on Gold & Guest Talk Tottenham Podcast: “Joe Rodon will be heading off this summer, we will wait to see where he’s going.

“I’m intrigued to see whether he ends up somewhere like Ipswich. I know Kieran McKenna is quite a big fan of him, so I wonder whether that would be an option for him.”

Spurs Web Opinion

I am certain that Joe Rodon will end up joining a Premier League club this summer as I expect a few top-flight clubs to express interest.

The Spurs player’s priority would be to get game time, which is why a move to one of the newly promoted sides might make sense for him.
