According to a PTI report, six RR players have drawn interest from other IPL teams during the early phase of the trading window, which began on June 4. This window will remain open until a week before the 2026 auction, then reopen after the auction and close one month before the next season starts.
"Will this trade happen? CSK have expressed interest, but they haven’t reached the stage of talks where potential trade names have been discussed. Rajasthan may want either Ashwin or Jadeja in return. It’s well within their rights to ask, if the trade ever progresses that far," Chopra said on his YouTube show.
Sanju Samson Has Been with the Rajasthan Royals Since Rejoining in 2018
Sanju Samson has been part of the Rajasthan Royals since rejoining the franchise in 2018 after a two-year stint with Delhi Capitals (DC). Ahead of the 2025 mega auction, Rajasthan retained him for ₹18 crore.
Samson's IPL 2025 campaign was marred by injuries. He started the tournament as an Impact Player in the first three games before suffering an abdominal injury against Delhi Capitals, which ruled him out for five matches. Rajasthan Royals, under head coach Rahul Dravid, failed to qualify for the playoffs.
A CSK Official Has Said They Are Interested and Keen - Aakash Chopra
"A CSK official has said they are interested and keen. They feel it would be great to have Samson because he’s a keeper-batter, and they need to plan beyond MS Dhoni. So he could be a very good option," Chopra said.
MS Dhoni hasn’t confirmed his availability for IPL 2026. Following the 2025 season, the veteran stated he was taking his time before making a decision. CSK must now begin planning for a future beyond their iconic captain.
