Middlesbrough boss Chris Wilder says Djed Spence has expressed a desire to leave for Tottenham Hotspur this summer but the two clubs remain well apart in their valuations of the wing-back.
Spence, 21, broke onto the scene as one of England's brightest young talents after a brilliant loan spell with Nottingham Forest. The England youth international's excellent performance on the right side of defence played a big part in the Reds' promotion to the Premier League.
His displays have been so impressive that the Boro wing-back has drawn strong transfer interest from Tottenham and Forest as well as from across Europe.
