# Tottenham Hotspur: Evening Standard reporter shares promising Djed Spence transfer update

**According to reliable journalist [Jack Rosser of The Evening Standard](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-tottenham-djed-spence-transfer-news-b991633.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#r3z-addoor), Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of Championship star Djed Spence has taken a fresh twist this week.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs linked…

The Lilywhites have been linked with a move for Spence since the end of January with [multiple bids](https://twitter.com/jamesolley/status/1488158834166280193?s=21) apparently being lodged in the winter window.

Tottenham’s attempts were knocked back, however, with Antonio Conte’s side now seemingly set for a battle to sign the in-demand right back this summer.

[Arsenal and Bayern Munich](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-tottenham-djed-spence-transfer-news-b991633.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#r3z-addoor) are among Fabio Paratici’s competitors, but in good news for the club, there has been an update on his price tag and the likelihood of him leaving parent club Middlesbrough.

### The Latest: Rosser shares promising update…

According to [Rosser](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-tottenham-djed-spence-transfer-news-b991633.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#r3z-addoor), Spence could leave for as little as £12million – £15million.

The Evening Standard reporter also explains that the English starlet ‘[will move this summer](https://twitter.com/JackRosser_/status/1509478591490363393?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet)‘ as Riverside officials grow resigned to losing their promising asset.

Tottenham have apparently ‘[held talks over a potential deal](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/arsenal-tottenham-djed-spence-transfer-news-b991633.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#r3z-addoor)‘, and even though they face stiff competition, it appears Spence is nailed on for a step up to the Premier League.

### The Verdict: Make a move?

The 21-year-old has been a star player under Steve Cooper during his loan spell at Nottingham Forest, ranking as one of their top four highest performers in the Championship by average match rating [(WhoScored).](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/174/Show/England-Nottingham-Forest)

Proving a consistent threat, the attacking full-back has completed more successful take-ons than any Forest player in the Championship bar forward Keinan Davis, highlighting his potential to thrive under Conte ([WhoScored).](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/174/Show/England-Nottingham-Forest)

He’s already been called a [‘massive player’](https://www.msn.com/en-gb/sport/football/sky-sports-pundit-issues-claim-involving-nottingham-forest-and-djed-spence/ar-AASFdba) for Forest by Sky pundit Jobi McAnuff, and at such a young age, he’ll just get better and better.

For a maximum fee of £15m, it would be foolish not to move.
