Leeds United could consider signing Tottenham Hotspur loanee Joe Rodon at Elland Road this summer.
But Gusto was a bundle of energy and effort from his first Blue game, when he was brought on as a substitute for Reece James in the season’s opening match against Liverpool. All that was left was to harness and refine it.
In Gusto’s debut start against Luton, he added two assists. But after a VAR review, the Frenchman was given a harsh but straight red card in our loss to Aston Villa at the end of September.
After serving his suspension, he suffered an injury at the beginning of December that kept him out of action for four games. In his absence, Everton, Manchester United, and Newcastle United all lost.
Despite James’s return to the sidelines in the subsequent months, Gusto’s impact has only increased.
Leeds hoping to sign Rodon permanently
The defender’s future remains a point of debate
Leeds secured the loan signing of Joe Rodon from Tottenham in August 2023, putting pen to paper on the dotted line at Elland Road until the end of the 2023/24 season. The 26-year-old has since established himself as a regular in Farke’s side, who are hoping to secure an immediate return to the Premier League following their relegation from the top-tier last term.
