Liverpool are reportedly tracking Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence as they look to bolster their full-back options this summer. The 25-year-old, who could be heading for an exit from the London club, has also attracted interest from Inter Milan and Newcastle United, according to TEAMtalk.
With a need for added quality in the full-back positions, Spence is seen as a potentially ideal signing. He has demonstrated his capabilities at Tottenham and has also been impressing on the international stage with the England national team.
Spence's versatility to play on either flank makes him an attractive prospect for Liverpool, especially considering injury concerns for players like Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley last season. The departure of Andrew Robertson also highlights the demand for more depth and quality across both full-back roles.
However, a move to Anfield might present a similar scenario to his current club, where guaranteed first-team starts are not assured. At 25, regular playing time is crucial for Spence, and opportunities at Newcastle or Inter Milan could be more appealing if they offer consistent action.
It remains to be seen if Liverpool will formalize their interest with an official offer, which would likely need to include assurances of playing time to persuade the player. Tottenham are reportedly willing to sanction his sale if the price is right, as they focus on acquiring attacking reinforcements.
