Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso (Picture: AP) Chelsea have been urged to launch a late bid to sign England full-back Djed Spence after he was offered to both Liverpool and Manchester United. Spence has spent just two full seasons at Spurs having initially struggled to secure a first-team role following his £20million move from Championship side Middlesbrough four years ago. But the 25-year-old enhanced his reputation at this summer’s World Cup, producing several standout performances in an England shirt as Thomas Tuchel’s side finished third in North America. Despite those performances, Spence does not appear to be guaranteed regular minutes at Tottenham this season, with Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro preferred by Roberto De Zerbi on both flanks. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. And Spence is therefore keen to seek a summer exit from Spurs, with reports earlier in the week suggesting that both Liverpool and United had been offered the chance to sign the versatile full-back. But former Chelsea midfielder Andy Townsend believes the Blues should join the race to sign the Englishman as they look to bolster their options at full-back following the departure of Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid. ‘I don’t know what he would cost because of how well he did at the World Cup,’ Townsend told talkSPORT. ‘Has that inflated his price tag unreasonably? I genuinely haven’t got a clue. Djed Spence impressed at the World Cup with England (Picture: Getty) ‘If Cucurella is going to Real Madrid for over £60million, I would have thought Djed Spence at £40million, something around that figure, would be a decent acquisition. ‘It wouldn’t do them any harm to have someone who is still looking to improve as a player, who is all ears and wants to get better. ‘He is now showing what he is capable of, so that would be a good piece of business.’ Chelsea may have to move quickly if they are to secure Spence’s signature, though, with reports suggesting that Inter Milan have now entered talks with Spurs over a deal for the defender. Townsend: 'Sanchez not a title-winning goalkeeper' Robert Sanchez (Picture: Reuters) Elsewhere, Townsend urged his former club to find a replacement for Robert Sanchez, who has never fully convinced since his £25m move from Brighton in 2023. ‘Robert Sanchez is one of those goalkeepers that Monday to Friday, he must be unbelievable,’ he added. ‘He must be plucking them out of the top corner and making saves from all angles – he must be brilliant. ‘Everyone at the club thinks there is a proper goalkeeper there, whereas most of us are waiting for a lapse in concentration. You are just waiting for him to scupper all of the good work that clearly he can do. ‘I would have thought that if Chelsea want to win the league, and I am sure they will want to again at some point, they are going to have to upgrade. But they obviously haven’t seen anything they really fancy, so they are going to continue to go with Sanchez.’ Inter are keen to strengthen at right-back after the departure of Denzel Dumfries to Real Madrid. A fee in the region of €30million (£25.6m) could be enough for Spurs to sell Spence, who is under contract until the summer of 2028. Spence would 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. Speaking earlier in pre-season, Spurs manager De Zerbi stressed that he is keen for Spence to stay at the club but said he would not stand in the way of any player if they want to move. ‘I repeat what I said to Djed, and to Lucas [Bergvall],’ De Zerbi said. ‘I would like you to stay if you want to stay. If you don’t want to stay, if you want to leave, then you have to leave.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page. Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Lionel Messi's return to Inter Miami remains uncertain after Guillermo Hoyos gave no updates in a press conference. Guillermo Hoyos addressed Lionel Messi‘s situation directly when asked about it in a press conference, offering a raw and honest response about the pain surrounding his captain’s absence. “We know what happened with Leo, and it’s a very deep pain — we’ve suffered a lot because of it,” the Inter Miami coach said. When the reporter followed up, asking specifically whether he had any information on a possible return date, Hoyos kept his answer short and direct: “Nothing,” he said, offering no further details or timeline for when Messi might be back with the squad. Messi has been away from the team since the passing of his father, Jorge Messi, last Friday, missing Inter Miami‘s Leagues Cup loss to Monterrey as he traveled to Argentina to be with his family. His absence has left a significant void both emotionally and on the field for a Miami side now fighting to keep its tournament hopes alive. That fight continues Wednesday, August 12, when Inter Miami host Club Leon at Nu Stadium in what could already be a dead rubber. Miami risk being mathematically eliminated from the Leagues Cup as early as Tuesday, August 11, one day before that match, depending on results elsewhere in the MLS table — meaning they could take the field against Leon already out of contention for the knockout rounds. Lionel Messi of Inter Miami. (Getty Images) When could Messi return? If Messi doesn’t make it back for the Leon match, attention turns to Inter Miami’s next fixtures on the calendar: an MLS clash with Nashville SC on August 15, or the August 19 meeting with Philadelphia Union. Miami’s own tournament situation could end up shaping that decision as much as anything else. Should the club already be eliminated from the Leagues Cup by the time they face Leon, there would be little competitive reason to rush Messi back for a match with nothing riding on it. The Leagues Cup situation would potentially push his return even further out, toward Nashville or Philadelphia, once there’s an actual result on the line.
Sunderland's director of football Florent Ghisolfi believes it is "the right moment" for goalkeeper Anthony Patterson "to start a new chapter in his career" after a 16-year stay at the Stadium of Light. "He has a special connection with Sunderland," Ghisolfi said.
England defender keen on move to Italian championsUdogie and Porro set to be Spurs’ first-choice full-backsTottenham are prepared to allow Djed Spence to join Inter, with the England defender expected to cost around €30m (£25.6m).Spence – who started four games for England at the World Cup, including the semi-final against Argentina – has fallen further down the pecking order at Spurs after the arrival of Andy Robertson from Liverpool. He signed a new four-year contract in north London at the start of last season but is believed to be keen on joining the Italian champions, with Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro expected to be Roberto De Zerbi’s preferred full-backs this season.

Lionel Messi's Inter Miami find themselves in a tough spot and could be eliminated from the Leagues Cup before their clash with Club Leon. Lionel Messi‘s Inter Miami are at risk of being eliminated from the 2026 Leagues Cup before they even take the field for their third group-stage match, after a 1-2 loss to Monterrey severely complicated their path to the knockout rounds. Messi did not feature in that defeat, sitting out following the passing of his father, Jorge Messi, a day earlier. His absence left Inter Miami without their captain and top scorer as they dropped their second match of the tournament, a result that now puts their qualification hopes in serious jeopardy. Miami sit on three points through two matches, having opened with a 4-2 win over Atletico San Luis before falling to Monterrey. That leaves them well behind the pace in the MLS table, where six clubs — Austin FC, Charlotte, Chicago Fire, Cincinnati, Columbus Crew and Dallas — already have six points apiece, with LAFC on five and Real Salt Lake on four. Miami could be mathematically eliminated as early as Tuesday, August 11, one day before their scheduled clash with Club Leon on Wednesday, August 12 at Nu Stadium in Miami. Omar Gálvez #200 of Monterrey and Casemiro #5 of Inter Miami CF. (Getty Images) That elimination scenario would require Charlotte, Cincinnati and Columbus to all draw their matches — even if they go on to lose in penalty shootouts — while Real Salt Lake defeat Juarez, a combination that would leave Miami unable to climb into the MLS table’s top four regardless of how they perform against Leon. How Leagues Cup qualification works The tournament is built around two separate 18-team standings tables, one for MLS clubs and one for Liga MX clubs, with only the top four finishers in each table advancing to the knockout rounds. Points are awarded on a tiered scale: a win in regulation is worth three points, while any match that finishes level after 90 minutes goes straight to penalties, with the shootout winner collecting two points and the loser one. That system means goal difference and overall points accumulated across all three group-stage matches ultimately decide who advances, rather than head-to-head results within a smaller pool of teams — which is exactly why results from other MLS clubs on Miami’s off day could end their tournament before they even step onto the field against Leon.
