Deal Back On Track As Price Drops

Inter Milan are prepared to submit an official bid for Djed Spence should Tottenham’s exit conditions shift, with the Nerazzurri now sensing an opportunity below their previous ceiling. Spurs had demanded €45 million immediately after the World Cup, yet Inter believe that figure can now drop under €40 million.

Notably, talks are set to resume, marking a genuine revival after weeks of stop-start negotiations. Spence himself remains keen on the move, a detail that continues strengthening Inter’s position as this saga edges toward resolution.

The Nerazzurri’s interest isn’t new. Spence emerged as a leading candidate to replace Denzel Dumfries, who departed for Real Madrid, and Cristian Chivu has reportedly backed his profile throughout the process. His versatility across both flanks, without sacrificing quality, fits neatly into Inter’s tactical requirements at wing-back.

Spence’s World Cup form only sharpened that interest further. He impressed during England’s run, drawing praise from Harry Kane, who described him as “outstanding” during the tournament. That performance level convinced Inter he could handle Serie A’s demands immediately, rather than needing further seasoning in England.

Tottenham, meanwhile, appear increasingly open to a sale. Roberto De Zerbi has previously admitted Spence could depart this summer, even while stopping short of formally sanctioning his exit. With Pedro Porro established as first-choice right wing-back, regular minutes look scarce regardless of Spence’s tournament heroics.

Wider Context Adds Pressure To Close Deal

Financial context matters here, too. Tottenham have already spent more than £235 million overhauling their defence and midfield this summer, and balancing that outlay increasingly requires generating sales alongside signings.

Competition hasn’t entirely disappeared, either. Both Liverpool and Manchester United have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Spence, while Everton previously showed interest as well. Still, Inter’s renewed determination suggests they intend to move decisively once conditions align.

For Spence personally, certainty matters most. Sitting on the bench holds little appeal, according to Yardbarker, especially after proving himself capable at the highest international level this summer.

With both sides showing renewed willingness, a breakthrough could arrive quickly. Readers following Tottenham’s summer business can find continued coverage on KCPredict as deadline day approaches.
