Tottenham readying bid for Swansea defender Joe Rodon

Tottenham are readying a bid for Swansea City defender Joe Rodon.

Spurs are looking to add a centre-back to the squad and the position is deemed as the final piece of the jigsaw.

The club have bolstered their ranks with the acquisitions of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Joe Hart, Matt Doherty, Gareth Bale, Sergio Reguilon and Carlos Vinicius this summer.

Talks were held for Milan Skriniar but Daniel Levy was unable to strike an agreement.

Now attentions have turned to 22-year-old Rodon and Football Insider reports Spurs are willing to pay £13m to secure his services.

Talks were reportedly held yesterday between the two clubs and there is optimism that a deal can be done.
