Serie A champions Inter Milan are considering a summer move for Tottenham Hotspur full-back Djed Spence, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.
Spence was a key player for Spurs last season having started 23 league matches, while making a further seven sub outings.
The 25-year-old’s good form saw him earn a spot in the England squad for the 2026 World Cup, where he has featured in all six matches so far.
Inter hoping to bring Spence back to Italy
And Spence’s showings for both club and country have not gone unnoticed, with Inter now looking to bring the versatile Englishman to Italy.
Romano reports that talks between both Inter and Spurs are ongoing, though the Italian giants are yet to match the Premier League side’s valuation for Spence.
The player himself, however, is open to the move despite his increased importance for the north London side.
A move to Inter would also mark a return to Italy for Spence, who spent the second half of the 2023/24 season on loan at Genoa.
Genoa had hoped to secure Spence’s services permanently, but were unable to agree a fee with Spurs for the England international.
Spence set for bench role vs Argentina
Spence is unlikely to start for the Three Lions when they take on Argentina in the semi-final of the 2026 World Cup on Wednesday.
The Spurs man impressed off the bench in the quarter-final 2-1 win over Norway, yet the expectation is that Ezri Konsa will retain his starting spot at right-back, while Nico O’Reilly will feature at left-back.
The winner of tonight’s clash in Atlanta will take on Spain in Sunday’s showpiece after La Roja’s 2-0 win over France.
Goals from Real Sociedad forward Mikel Oyarzabal and Spurs right-back Pedro Porro either side of half time saw Spain progress to the World Cup 2026 final as they look to go the distance for the first time since 2010 and just the second time in their history.
