Inter Milan are on the verge of signing Djed Spence from Tottenham (Picture: Getty) Djed Spence is edging closer to leaving Tottenham for Inter Milan, according to reports in Italy. Spence struggled to live up to expectations at Tottenham after joining from Middlesbrough back in 2022, having helped Nottingham Forest win promotion to the Premier League during an outstanding loan spell at the City Ground. After three separate loans with Rennes, Leeds and Genoa, though, Spence enjoyed something of a resurgence at Spurs last season, earning himself a place in England’s World Cup squad. Spence emerged from the tournament as one of the Three Lions’ unlikely stars after working his way into Thomas Tuchel’s starting XI in the midst of an injury crisis at full-back.

But Tottenham’s hierarchy were unmoved and made it clear they were open to offers for Spence at the start of the summer transfer window, meaning the versatile 26-year-old returned to north London with his club future up in the air. Reports last week indicated both Manchester United and Liverpool had been offered the chance to sign Spence before the transfer deadline. However, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter have muscled themselves into pole position for Spence and the England international is said to be ‘on his way’ to the San Siro. Spurs are ready to sell Spence for a fee of £25.6m (Picture: Getty) The versatile full-back was one of England’s breakout stars at the World Cup (Picture: Getty) It’s claimed the relevant parties have come close to reaching an agreement ‘in the last few hours’ over a move expected to be worth in the region of €30million (£25.6m) plus bonuses. The report adds that Spence will be brought in as Denzel Dumphries’ long-term successor in Milan ‘barring any unexpected developments’. Spence is set to follow in the footsteps of international colleague John Stones, who departed Manchester City to join the Serie A giants on a free transfer last month. Given their grueling summer with England, neither player is expected to be ready in time for Inter’s opening match of the Italian top-flight season at home to Monza on August 22. De Zerbi’s side begin the Premier League season away to Brentford (Picture: Getty) Tottenham had initially slapped a £35m price tag on Spence but ultimately decided to relax their demands in order to remove the defender from their wage bill. Spence is likely to put pen to paper on a four-year contract with Inter and the impending move could pave the way for Luis Enrique to complete a switch to Roma. Inter have been forced to drop their pursuit of Tottenham defender Cristian Romero but remain interested in a deal for Liverpool and England midfielder Curtis Jones. As one of Tottenham’s many World Cup participants, Spence was not included in Roberto De Zerbi’s touring party to New Zealand and Australia for the club’s pre-season matches against Auckland FC, Sydney FC and Chelsea. Spurs continue their busy pre-season schedule with a friendly against Hoffenheim at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this weekend before kicking off their Premier League campaign away to London rivals Brentford on August 22.

It’s now just ten days until the start of the new Premier League season, so who are the favourites for the 2026/27 Premier League title race? It was a close race last season that ultimately saw Arsenal come out on top and win their first title in 22 years, so they’ll surely be the favourites […] The post Premier League title favourites: Will it be Arsenal vs Man City again or can Liverpool bounce back? appeared first on CaughtOffside.
Florian Wirtz believes that he is "more ready" and "really excited" for his second season in the Premier League after settling in during his first campaign at Liverpool. Wirtz made the move from Bayer Leverkusen in a deal worth £116m last summer and scored seven goals and provided 10 assists in what was an underwhelming campaign overall for Liverpool under Arne Slot.

West Ham and Arsenal are in talks about a potential move for winger Reiss Nelson. Both a loan move and a permanent departure are being discussed and the 26-year-old is into the last year of his contract at Arsenal. Nelson has spent the last two seasons on loan at Fulham and Brentford and is not in manager Mikel Arteta's plans for this season.
On Sunday at Anfield against Monaco, Andoni Iraola was very honest after their 3-2 defeat. Two weeks out from the start of the Premier League campaign, Iraola's verdict was that his side had "work to do" because they could not sustain the level that he wanted for the duration of a game. Iraola said that his side played a good first 30 minutes but "they don't have much more, in terms of the levels required to play like this".

Ronald Araujo says he expects his attributes to suit the Premier League perfectly after securing a season-long loan move from Barcelona to Liverpool. "I can't wait to get started," Araujo said. Araujo says his "sincere, frank and honest conversation" with Reds manager Andoni Iraola was "great" and a big factor in his decision to join.
