Report: Brighton & Hove Albion manager hopes to reunite with Tottenham defender

The January window is opening in a couple of weeks, and there will likely be some players departing during that month. One player that could leave is central defender Joe Rodon. 

The former Swansea City defender has failed to secure a starting role on Spurs backline, and it doesn’t seem as though he’s part of the future. As a result, some Premier League clubs are circling the 24-year-old defender as a potential target. 

According to The Times, Brighton & Hove Albion FC is the latest club expressing interest in Rodon. The Seagulls have an interest in Rodon due to their manager Graham Potter working with the defender at Swansea during the 2018-19 season. 

Rodon will likely go out on loan to use these next six months to rebuild his stock, which Tottenham wants as they look to recoup a fee for a player that doesn’t seem to have a future in north London despite the Wales international being under contract until 2025.
