# Tottenham: Romano shares Spence latest amid reports

**Reliable transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano has now shared the latest [Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) transfer news amid major reports surrounding Djed Spence.**

### The Lowdown: Big claims…

In the last 24 hours, a really big claim emerged of a reached agreement between Middlesbrough and Spurs for the signing of Spence.

[The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/jun/10/tottenham-agree-deal-to-buy-djed-spence-from-middlesbrough?CMP=share_btn_tw) stated yesterday evening that club chief Fabio Paratici and the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) giants had agreed a £20 million fee for the 21-year-old.

After they claimed manager Antonio Conte was closing in on his third summer signing after Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster, journalists like Alasdair Gold of football.london were then [quick to rebuff](https://twitter.com/AlasdairGold/status/1535307768827203585) the update.

Gold did state that there should be developments in the next 72 hours though, with Romano now sharing what he knows.

### The Latest: Spurs talks ‘on’…

According to Romano, sharing news on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1535312854873690112), Tottenham talks are still ‘on’ to sign Spence but things aren’t as advanced as the Guardian suggested.

He explained:

*“Tottenham are interested in Djed Spence since long time but they’ve not reached full agreement to sign him yet despite rumours. Talks on – there are few clubs interested in the right back. THFC Discussions about Spence’s future will continue in the coming days.”*

### The Verdict: Make the move…

While a fee hasn’t been agreed upon yet, the fact Spurs are still in contention with talks ongoing is brilliant news for Conte and the club’s supporters.

Spence is arguably one of the most promising young players in England right now, having played a [significant part](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/jun/10/tottenham-agree-deal-to-buy-djed-spence-from-middlesbrough?CMP=share_btn_tw) in Nottingham Forest’s push for top flight promotion over 2021/2022 whilst on loan.

The exciting wing-back’s addition would also help to balance Spurs’ homegrown quota and provide them a further boost ahead of a long and busy summer window.
