Inter Milan is gearing up to discuss the transfer of Djed Spence with Tottenham Hotspur. The Serie A club is eager to bolster their right flank and has identified the 25-year-old as a key target ahead of the upcoming season.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter plans to hold talks with Spurs as they intensify their pursuit of Spence. The Nerazzurri see the England international as a perfect long-term replacement for Denzel Dumfries and are ready to invest up to €35 million to secure his services.

However, they remain cautious, aware of Tottenham’s reputation as tough negotiators. Inter is not willing to exceed their valuation should Spurs demand a higher fee. The upcoming days will be crucial as the Italian side seeks to determine the feasibility of reaching an agreement.

Additionally, Liverpool has emerged as a potential competitor for Spence's signature.

Spence's stock has risen significantly following a standout performance during the recent World Cup, where England reached the semi-finals before losing to Argentina. His impressive displays have confirmed his elite status in European football, potentially complicating Inter's efforts to acquire him.

Moreover, Spence may be inclined to move in search of regular playing time, having previously enjoyed a successful stint with Genoa. The competition at Tottenham, with Pedro Porro and the new signing Andy Robertson, could further influence his decision. A transfer to San Siro would offer him the first-team opportunities he craves, aligning perfectly with his high-intensity playing style. The outcome of the talks between the two clubs will shed light on the defender’s future.
