Tottenham: 'Something has happened' with £12.5m star at Hotspur Way

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte continuously overlooking Djed Spence must mean something has happened behind the scenes, according to journalist Paul Brown. Spence made the switch to the Premier League in a £12.5m deal from Middlesbrough in the summer transfer window, but he’s been restricted to just one appearance.

Following months of speculation, the 21-year-old finally arrived in north London ahead of the new campaign, with Spurs beating off competition from several Premier League and European clubs.

Despite already having both Emerson Royal and Matt Doherty in their ranks, right wing-back was an obvious weakness in Conte’s squad.

As a result, Spence would have surely fancied his chances of fighting to become the Italian’s number one player in that position.
