Djed Spence has sent an emotional message to Nottingham Forest after finally sealing his protracted transfer to Tottenham. Starting the 2021/22 campaign at Middlesbrough, the 21-year-old moved on loan to Forest on deadline day last summer and was a huge success at the City Ground.
Having a major impact on the team from his right wing-back berth with his marauding runs down the flank, Spence finished the season with three goals and five assists for Steve Cooper's men. His season-long loan spell at Forest did come to an end at Wembley, helping them win promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs after a 23-year absence from the top flight.
Coming to the attention of a number of clubs following his exploits for Nottingham Forest, Spence sent a special message to all connected with the club shortly before his Tottenham transfer was officially announced on Tuesday morning.
