Leeds United Signs Archie Gray for £30M, Sends Joe Rodon to Tottenham for £10M: What’s Behind the Deal

18-year-old Archie Gray has signed a long-term deal with Tottenham Hotspur for around £30m. In exchange, Tottenham sent defender Joe Rodon to Leeds in a deal worth about £10m. Gray had initially been going through a medical examination at Brentford but the bid was rejected due to payment structure disagreements.

Gray, who played several matches in various positions for Leeds last season, is the great-nephew of Leeds legend Eddie Gray. The sale of Gray is expected to help Leeds comply with profit and sustainability rules following their loss in the Championship play-off final. This defeat led to the need to sell players in order to meet financial regulations.

Meanwhile, Wales international Joe Rodon has signed a four-year deal with Leeds after being on loan with the club last season. The move was made after Tottenham triggered a release clause in Archie’s contract due to Leeds’ failure to secure promotion in the previous season.
