Rodon was hugely successful at Leeds during his loan spell from Tottenham Hotspur last season.

There was no surprise when Leeds made the loan deal of Rodon permanent in the summer of 2024, and the defender has gone from strength to strength since then.
The defender has impressed for Leeds in the 15 Championship games he has played so far, and Rodon is starring for Wales as well.
Wales took on Turkey away from home at the RHG EnertΓΌrk Enerji Stadyumu in UEFA Nations League β League B β Group 4 on Saturday evening.
Leeds United defender Joe Rodon impresses for Wales vs Turkey
The match ended in a goalless draw, and one of the reasons was the performance of Rodon at the back.
Lining alongside Tottenham Hotspur star Ben Davies in central defence in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Turkey, Rodon was a rock at the back for Wales.
Even a clash of heads with Wales international teammate mate Mark Harris towards the end of the first half did not affect Rodon.
