Djed Spence makes Tottenham return after £25m transfer as reunion photo emerges

Spence returned to Tottenham's training ground as part of England's Nations League camp after joining Inter Milan for £25m in the summer.

Djed Spence has returned to Tottenham's Hotspur Way training ground during England's international break, though not as a player. The 26-year-old left Spurs in the summer transfer window, joining Serie A side Inter Milan in a £25m deal following the World Cup in Qatar where he started England's semi-final defeat to Argentina.

Spence's departure came after Tottenham signed Andy Robertson and brought in other defensive reinforcements under manager Roberto De Zerbi. With Pedro Porro established as the club's primary right-back option and Destiny Udogie the first-choice left-back, Spence's path to regular football had become limited.

During his visit to the training ground with England's Nations League squad, Spence posted a photograph on Instagram with three Spurs players: injured duo Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert, plus Richarlison, who has been frozen out of De Zerbi's squad and was not registered for the Premier League this season.
