# Tottenham: Joe Rodon update emerges

**Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge has made a claim regarding Tottenham centre-back Joe Rodon, as per [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/1820810-spurs-transfer-news-fresh-update-on-64-star-leaving-tottenham-hotspur-this-month).**

### The Lowdown: Leeds keen

The defender is [yet to make](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-rodon/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/297212/plus/0/saison/2021/verein/148/trainer_id/3517) a Premier League appearance under Antonio Conte, who has regularly used left-back [Ben Davies](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-davies/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/192765/plus/0/saison/2021/verein/148/trainer_id/3517) as part of a three-man defence.

Leeds United were [name-checked](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/12/21/transfer-notebook-newcastle-leading-race-sign-spurs-centre-back/?utm_content=football&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1640095721) with an interest in the 24-year-old over the Christmas period, with [reports](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-transfer-rumours/joe-rodon-tottenham-newcastle-premier-league/) suggesting that Spurs were likely to give the green light to a temporary exit.

The Wales international recently [featured](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joe-rodon/leistungsdaten/spieler/297212) against Morecambe in the FA Cup, but it doesn’t appear as if he is a player in demand this month.

### The Latest: Bridge’s claim

Bridge was talking to [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/1820810-spurs-transfer-news-fresh-update-on-64-star-leaving-tottenham-hotspur-this-month) regarding the Tottenham centre-back and claimed that there hasn’t been much interest in Rodon’s services over a loan for the second half of the season.

The journalist outlined: “One thing I have heard is that there hasn’t been a lot of interest from a Premier League side about a loan deal at the moment.”

### The Verdict: Not looking good

Spurs [insider John Wenham](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-insider-claims-tanganga-could-join-premier-league-club-in-january-after-sources-reveal-today/) thought that Rodon would ‘definitely’ leave this month, but that is now appearing less likely halfway through the transfer window.

You could make an argument that regular game-time would benefit the defender – who was labelled [‘special’](https://twitter.com/ianmitchelmore/status/1374837759702097932?s=21) by Welsh football journalist Ian Mitchelmore – over the next five months, but Spurs will need clubs to approach them for that to happen.

It doesn’t look like the 24-year-old will feature much under Conte in the second half of the season either, and if he doesn’t seal a loan exit, it could be a long 2022 for the player.
