Tottenham have rejected Inter’s €30m offer for Djed Spence, with the Premier League club holding out for €35m plus bonuses to sanction the full-back’s sale. However, But in a fresh update, it has also been revealed that Spence has agreed to contract terms with Inter, and a deal now looks closer than ever before to being completed.
According to Fabrizio Romano on X, Inter Milan have tabled a formal €30m (£25.6m) offer for the 25-year-old full-back, as they look to bring in a new option for manager Christian Chivu. Spurs are understood to be demanding at least €35m (£30m) plus add-ons for the former Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough star, and talks are ongoing between the clubs to find an agreement.
Spence, an England international fresh from a strong campaign, is the man Inter believe can fill the void, provided the two clubs can agree a price.
Spurs have had a very busy summer transfer window, including the arrivals of defenders Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, and Jan Paul van Hecke, while first-choice right-back Pedro Porro has also signed a new long-term contract with the club.
Spence has attracted the interest of a number of clubs this summer, with Man Utd and Liverpool reportedly keen. However, Romano told the Market Madness podcast that Liverpool's interest had been exaggerated and nothing was advanced. Now Spence, who previously had a loan spell at Genoa, looks set to return to Serie A, with the clubs closing in on an agreement.
