What happened
Tottenham defender Djed Spence is on the verge of leaving the club, with Serie A side Inter Milan in advanced negotiations over a transfer worth approximately £25.6m. Spence, who arrived at Tottenham with high expectations but struggled for game time, appears set for a move to Italy. The deal would represent a significant sale for Spurs and give Inter a new option at full-back heading into the new season.
Chance analysis
Spence's potential departure signals a clearout at Tottenham under their current sporting structure, as the club looks to recoup value on a player who never established himself in North London. For Inter, adding an athletic, attack-minded full-back fits their tactical profile and adds depth in a key area. The £25.6m fee would represent good business for Spurs given Spence's limited impact, while Inter would be banking on a change of environment unlocking the player's potential.
