As per a fresh report, Tottenham Hotspur supporters who wish to see Middlesbrough starlet Djed Spence join the Premier League club may now have been given a boost.

The Lowdown: Spurs in talks...

Sky Sports back that Spurs and chairman Daniel Levy have been locked in negotiations with Boro over signing their talented wing-back this last week.

They recently claimed that both the second-tier club and Tottenham were still apart in valuation over Spence with the transfer now hindering on money.

It is believed that the 21-year-old is eager to play for manager Antonio Conte and the Italian personally sees him as a top target for the RWB position.

The Latest: Lilywhites still confident...

Now, a promising update has now come out of north London concerning a possible agreement.

90min claim Spurs are 'continuing talks' for Spence and there is 'still a belief' they will seal an agreement for the England Under-21 international 'in the near future'.

The Verdict: Glimmer of hope?

We believe this report could provide a glimmer of hope for Spurs supporters who, unsurprisingly, want to see Spence make the move.

Called an 'exciting player' by members of the media, the defender has even been dubbed 'perfect' for Conte's system and will help solve some off-field issues at Hotspur Way.

The club's troubling homegrown quota has been a problem for some time and Spence's signing could do wonders to balance the books and allow Tottenham to bring in further signings from overseas.

Indeed, 90min's latest update could come as a promising one.
