Fabrizio Romano has reported on Twitter that Tottenham Hotspur central defender Joe Rodon will undergo a medical at Rennes on Sunday.

The well-known and well-respected journalist has claimed that Tottenham and Wales international centre-back Rodon will be in France this weekend to complete his move to Rennes.

Rodon will sign a one-year loan deal with Rennes, who have agreed a deal with Tottenham already, according to Romano, as you can see below.

That Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte is letting the defender leave on loan suggests that the Italian does not think that the 24-year-old is good enough to play week in and week out for his team.

The defender was able to make only three substitute appearances in the Premier League for Spurs last season.

Tottenham boss Conte has options at centre-back, and it is hard to see Rodon return next summer and get into the Spurs team.

It is very likely that the Welsh defender will never again play for Tottenham.

The 24-year-old has made only 15 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
