Gareth Bale and Ben Davies star in cheeky Tottenham video to announce Joe Rodon move from Swansea City

Wales' Gareth Bale and Ben Davies have featured in a cheeky video to help announce the club's move for Swansea City's Joe Rodon.

The video, shared minutes before the transfer was announced, started with a car pulling up to the Spurs training ground, before an operator says to the pair: "We've got a Welsh lad here at the security gate".

The pair jokingly cry out "send him back", before bursting out laughing.

Eventually, Bale tells security they can "let him in".

You can watch the video below:

News of Rodon's arrival was confirmed just a few minutes after the release of the video, which is unlikely to go down too well with Swansea fans, many of whom believe the club should have held out for more than the initial fee of £11m.

The 22-year-old centre-half has signed a five-year deal in north London, and leaves after making 54 first-team appearances for his boyhood club.

Swansea could yet replace him with two new recruits, with the club hopeful of confirming deals for Ryan Bennett and Ryan Manning.
