Guest User-442311 - Wednesday, Nov 05, 2025Sanju Samson could be in a deal with another team before the IPL 2026 auction. According to the Times of India, Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals are set to finalize a deal for Sanju Samson very soon. It's clear that Samson is set to leave Rajasthan, and Delhi Capitals has expressed interest in him. However, according to reports, Delhi did not want to trade any of its key players.
According to a report published in the Times of India, KL Rahul's name was included in the Rajasthan-Delhi deal. However, Delhi is not ready to release a player who was their top performer last season. However, RR management has liked the idea of trading Samson for Tristan Stubbs. However, it is also reported that Rajasthan wants Stubbs and another player in exchange for Sanju Samson. It is being said that Delhi management is not happy with the idea of swapping two players for Samson. The report also revealed that Rajasthan Royals had contacted Chennai Super Kings management about trading Samson.
Kolkata Knight Riders need a top-order batsman and captain, so the team is making a strong push to sign KL Rahul. The friendship between KKR's new head coach and KL Rahul is no secret. Even the management is in favor of bringing Rahul in, as the Delhi team wants to invest its time and money in young players. KKR is unlikely to release star players like Varun Chakravarthy and Rinku Singh. They are also not interested in signing Venkatesh Iyer, who performed averagely last season.
