In the first half of last season, many Tottenham supporters still hoped Djed Spence was the key to transforming Antonio Conte’s stuttering side, but now Spurs have agreed to send the 23-year-old to a mid-table Serie A club in the latest bid to resurrect his flagging career.
Spurs have sent Spence to Genoa on loan as part of a £26million package for defender Radu Dragusin. Genoa would have an option to make his move permanent for around £8.5m in the summer.
