England defender Spence leaves Spurs for Inter Milan

Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence has transferred to Inter Milan, the Italian club announced on Saturday. Inter paid a sum of 30 million euros for the 26-year-old right-back. Born in 2000, Spence is set to sign a permanent deal with Inter, joining them from Tottenham on a deal that commits him to the club until June 30, 2031.

Inter made the announcement via a statement, which also mentioned that Spence is entering the club after a loan spell at Genoa between January and June 2024. He has made a total of 85 appearances for Tottenham, scoring twice. The club expressed its best wishes for Spence's future endeavors.

Spence joined Tottenham in July 2022, having been acquired from Middlesbrough for 14 million euros. Known for his solid defensive performances, he proved instrumental to the team during their difficult season last year, when Tottenham narrowly escaped relegation from the Premier League.

Spence is not the first English international to join Inter recently. John Stones, who played for Manchester City for 10 years, recently departed to Inter as well. The duo is expected to bolster Inter's defense alongside fellow internationals Alessandro Bastoni and Federico Dimarco.
