Nottingham Forest have made Tottenham Hotspur defender Joe Rodon one of their “key targets” this summer as Steve Cooper watches a meeting with his former player.
Rodon played for the Reds during the duo’s time at Swansea City. The central defender moved from South Wales to Tottenham in October 2020, but has not secured a place in the starting line-up in north London.
The 24-year-old played a total of 10 times in all competitions last season, with only three of those appearances in the Premier League. So, I come up with ideas, and to see them flush it out, it’s really fun.

According to the Daily mail , Cooper is interested in bringing the center to City Ground this summer and has identified the player as one of two “key targets” for the summer. Speaking of his international teammate, Gareth Bale sent a message to Tottenham for his lack of playing time.
“For me personally, I think I should play at Tottenham. I think he has shown time and time again how good he is, I think personally, when I was there last year, I felt he deserved to play,” he said. Bale, he reported. football.london .
“I don’t think I’ve really had a chance to play a consistent series of games at Tottenham and I think if I did, it would be great for them.”
Forest is also said to be watching a move for Morgan Gibbs-White, who also played with Cooper in Swansea and won the U-17 World Cup under the direction of Forest’s boss.
Recent reports suggest Forest has “approached” the Wolves over a possible transfer for England’s Under-21 international. He has been linked with a move to City Ground since the start of the signing period.
