Djed Spence seems to have recaptured the form and confidence that made him such a huge hit at Nottingham Forest last season.
The attacking right-back was instrumental as the Reds overcame a torrid start to the season under Chris Hughton to win promotion via the play-offs under Steve Cooper.
The Reds were in the reckoning to sign Spence permanently from Middlesbrough last summer, only for Tottenham to win the race for his signature. However, amid suggestions by Antonio Conte that he was a ‘club signing’ and not his, Spence made just five substitute appearances before being farmed out on loan to French side Rennes, where he has secured regular first-team football.
