Following the recent sales of the club’s captain, Dani Parejo and Francis Coquelin to Villarreal, Valencia continued with a policy of movements that surely makes no sense in allowing Rodrigo to signed for Leeds United.
The 29-year-old striker will sign for Marcelo Bielsa in the Premier League according to BBC Sport, where he last played in 2010/11 on loan with Bolton Wanderers.
Spanish foreigner Rodrigo will give Yorkshire-based club anything else in advance.
He still has the speed to burn and his intelligence and cunning will be for a team that returns to the English elite for the first time in 16 years.
Its 59 purposes in 220 games for Los Che, via transfermarkt, are a moderate return of approximately one purpose every 4 games.
While Bielsa would possibly be expecting a higher proportion of goals per game, it’s Rodrigo’s joy that will be so important to help Leeds consolidate in the Premier League and make sure it’s not just a season-long wonder.
