Spence eyes first Inter appearance after finally training on the pitch

England international Djed Spence is set to make his debut for Inter Milan, almost a month after completing his €35 million move from Tottenham Hotspur. The 26-year-old made his first appearance in training with Inter on Thursday, as confirmed by club photographers. However, Spence may face a wait before his first outing at San Siro, as reports from Italy suggest his debut might be postponed.

This is due to an extended break following England's World Cup semi-final appearance and a minor physical issue he picked up, which kept him from the final stages of pre-season. Fellow England World Cup squad member John Stones has already featured three times for Inter since his summer transfer. Inter’s management is reportedly not in a hurry to rush Spence back, with the club scheduling his debut for their home match against Parma on October 10.

Meanwhile, Cristian Chivu has taken up the right wing-back position, with Andy Diouf already proving successful in Spence's former role.
