Djed Spence tipped to join Premier League club on loan amid Tottenham exit news

Djed Spence could join a Premier League club on loan from Tottenham in January.

As reported by Give Me Sport [9 December], Spence is expected to receive approaches to leave Tottenham on loan in January, with Nottingham Forest mooted as a possible destination.

The full-back has since been handed his first Tottenham start, putting in a “terrific” display during Spurs’ 5-0 Premier League win over Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium on Sunday [15 December].

However, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – still doesn’t think the player is part of the long-term thinking in North London.

“Spurs were willing to let Spence go for not much money in the summer,” Wenham said.

“Therefore, he probably is still available for transfer. I think it would probably need for a club to have a right-back unavailable due to injury or some other reason. However, Spence could certainly join a Premier League club on loan.”

Djed Spence to join Premier League club on loan from Tottenham?

Spence has been sent out on loan three times since moving to Tottenham in 2022. Therefore, it would hardly be a surprise to see him make such a move again.

And if he were to join a Premier League club on loan, that wouldn’t be such a bad idea for the player, as he would likely receive more minutes.

Postecoglou hasn’t shown much faith in the 24-year-old since he arrived in North London. As a result, under different circumstances, he might be happy to let Spence go. However, Spurs are currently suffering from an injury crisis so bad that behind-the-scenes dismissals have been mooted as a result.

Therefore, letting a valuable squad player, who has recently shown his quality, leave in January might not be such a good idea.

In other Tottenham news, the club are in the running to sign a Premier League forward after £60million news.
