Tottenham Hotspur have decided on the future of Djed Spence amidst transfer interest from Juventus.
There could be a mass exodus from Tottenham this summer should the club be relegated from the Premier League, and a number of their established stars, as well as youngsters, are emerging as targets for the European elite.
One of those who is facing an uncertain future at N17 is Djed Spence, who sent a controversial message to Igor Tudor while coming off against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.
It was reported by Gazzetta dello Sport a few days ago that Juventus are ready to make a move for Spence this summer as they set their sights are reinforcing their backline this summer.
Tottenham name asking price for Djed Spence
A new report in TEAMtalk has backed up Juve’s interest in the Spurs defender ahead of the summer window.
It is revealed that the Bianconeri’s sporting director, Marco Ottolini, who worked with Spence at Genoa, is the man orchestrating this transfer.
The outlet claims that Spurs are open to selling the full-back should their valuation be met, with the Lilywhites wanting to cash in on some of their assets to raise funds for a summer rebuild of their squad.

Are Juventus willing to meet Spurs’ asking price for Spence?
TEAMtalk say that Spence is viewed as an ‘important part of the team’ at Tottenham and the club would only let him go if their valuation is met.
The Old Lady see the 25-year-old as an upgrade over their options at full-back, and they believe that the Spurs man can add a lot to their side, given his blend of speed, power, and offensive threat.
While no formal negotiations have begun between the two clubs, it is asserted that Tottenham’s asking price for Spence is seen as ‘achievable’ by Juve.
