Danny Murphy believes Antonio Conte should give Djed Spence a chance at Tottenham before turning to alternatives in the transfer market.
The England U21 international signed for Spurs from Middlesbrough in the summer for a fee of £12.5m which could eventually rise to £20m after an eye-catching campaign in the Championship. However, Spence is yet to start a competitive match under Conte and has just three 89th minute substitute appearances in the Premier League to his name.
Tottenham have been linked with a move for Inter Milan and Netherlands right-back Denzel Dumfries but BBC pundit and former Spurs midfielder Murphy does not believe his old side should make that move.
