Tottenham Hotspur could now include defender Cameron Carter-Vickers as part of the bid to sign Swansea City star Joe Rodon. Spurs have been linked with a move for Wales international Rodon, who the Swans value somewhere north of £18m.

I'd imagine that CCV being part of the deal has been on the table since the beginning which hasn't been met with much enthusiasm by Swansea.

Not sure why, as he was a replacement for Rodon last time he went there and I thought he did well?

Why, at all, do we want to swap one young central defender for another young central defender of more or less equal capacity and talent - when the one we have is a HG and the one we are trying to get is not?

Rodon has been at Swansea since he was 8 y.o. It will be the same story as with Ben Davies, surely?

Maybe because they are not of equal capacity and talent, and we figure Rodon's ceiling is much higher than CCVs? CCV is not going to make our first team so might as well move him on for someone who our scouts/coach think has a much better chance of developing into something much better, and if that fails, will yield a profit in a couple of years.
 

Who’s our next manager?

Take it from me Rodon is a much better player than CCV

I believe he will be HG, because the FA association for Swansea has changed since Ben Davies turned 21.
