Tottenham signed Middlesbrough defender Djed Spence on Tuesday in a rumoured £20 million ($24 million) agreement.

Spence signed a five-year deal with Tottenham after excelling on loan with Championship club Nottingham Forest last season.

The initial asking price for the 21-year-old right-back is thought to be £12.5 million, but that figure may increase to £20 million if add-on clauses are met.

Spence shot to prominence as Forest won promotion to the Premier League via the second-tier play-offs last term.
He made 46 appearances, scoring three goals in a season that culminated with victory over Huddersfield in the play-off final at Wembley.
Tottenham boss, Antonio Conte, has been on a major recruitment drive since leading his team to Champions League qualification via a top four finish in the Premier League.

The addition of Spence follows Conte’s moves for Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster, Yves Bissouma, Richarlison and Clement Lenglet.
London-born Spence came through Fulham’s academy before moving to Middlesbrough in 2018, with his time at the Riverside Stadium disrupted by a host of managerial changes.

His temporary switch to Forest kick-started his career, earning him England Under-21 recognition in March and now a dream move to Tottenham.
