Change is perfect

Tottenham coach Antonio Conte has identified a centre-back, a right-back, two midfielders, a striker and a reserve goalkeeper as transfer targets for the summer change period, the Telegraph reported in April. If you look at the previous arrivals, the Italian’s wishes now seem to have been fulfilled – the missing piece of the puzzle for the right-back is after the “Times‘ had reported on the forthcoming deal a few days ago, with Middlesbrough’s Djed Spence now in place.

The 21-year-old has signed a contract with Spurs until 2027, according to official information on Tuesday. Negotiations between the clubs were considered to have failed just a few weeks ago after reportedly not being able to agree on a fee for the 21-year-old Londoner. The pain threshold of the English second division club was said to be around 18 million euros at the time, according to “Times” an amount of the equivalent of 14.7 million euros had now been agreed. In addition, the transfer fee can increase by 8.8 million through bonuses. With the deal, Tottenham breaks the 100 million mark in terms of spending in the current transfer summer.

The article appeared in the rumored version on July 15 and has now been updated after the fixed message.

Before Tottenham transfer: Spence rumors also about BVB, FC Bayern & Co.

Spence switched from Fulham to the U23 “Boros” in 2018, two years later he made the leap to the professionals. After a mixed 2020/21 season, the club loaned the right foot to Nottingham last summer, where Spence became a regular and a central figure in the successful rise of the Tricky Trees – he had eight goals in 46 games. At “Boro”, which finished the championship seventh in the table, his contract ran until 2024.

After the successful promotion with Nottingham Forest, the U21 international initially made a commitment to his loan club (“The club means everything to me. (…) I would like to stay, but it’s not in my hands.”), for whom a transfer was no longer an issue, at the latest since Liverpool’s Neco Williams was signed. Spence had been linked with several top European clubs in the spring, including Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and FC Bayern Munich.
