Leeds United Eyeing Tottenham’s Ben Davies as Potential Summer Transfer Target
Ben Davies has been linked with a move to Leeds United, with a potential summer deal in the works. Leeds have been closely monitoring the Welshman, who has been given more playing time than expected this season at Tottenham.
The likelihood of Davies continuing to receive significant game time next season is low, as Spurs’ defenders are set to return from injury. This could pave the way for the Whites to make a move for the 31-year-old defender.
With Leeds currently competing in the Championship, Davies would only consider joining a Premier League team, which could work to the Whites’ advantage if they secure promotion.
Davies has a close friendship with Leeds center-back Joe Rodon, as the two Welshmen have a special bond, which could provide a boost to any potential transfer.

It’s unclear how much Tottenham would demand for Davies, but Leeds could undoubtedly benefit from his Premier League experience if they secure promotion.
Rodon’s friendship with Davies could provide a significant advantage for the Whites, as the Leeds stalwart will likely maintain close contact with the Spurs defender due to their shared Welsh heritage.
Speaking on Tottenham’s YouTube channel, Davies revealed what Rodon would often do when the two were teammates at Spurs.
