Inter and Tottenham have reached a verbal agreement for the transfer of England international Djed Spence, confirmed renowned football insider Fabrizio Romano on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, with his famous phrase "here we go." Spence, a 26-year-old right-back, joins the Italian champions as a reinforcement for the right side of the defense.
Although sources differ on the exact figures, it is clear that a significant amount is involved. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Tottenham will receive €31 million in transfer fees plus an additional €4 million in bonuses, which could bring the total to €35 million. On the other hand, HRT and Fabrizio Romano cite €31.5 million as the total transfer value.
In addition to the agreement between the clubs, a full agreement has also been reached with the player, who, according to HRT, has made it clear in recent days that he wants to move to Milan. Spence will sign a contract with Inter until the summer of 2031, and before the official announcement, only minor details and a medical examination remain, which is considered a formality.
This is not Spence's first encounter with Italian football. During 2024, he spent six months on loan at Genoa, where he made 16 appearances. Now he returns to Serie A, this time to one of the biggest clubs, where he will play alongside his England teammate John Stones, who joined Inter as a free agent from Manchester City.
Spence was one of the most notable English players at the recent World Cup, and his arrival represents a significant boost for the Nerazzurri in their quest on both the domestic and European stages.
