The Italian journalist reported that the deal is ready and is set to be signed soon. The right-back has struggled to stamp down a place in Spurs’ starting lineup and hopes that a move away will help his cause.

What Will Spence Bring to Leeds
The 23-year-old’s impressive display in his time on loan at Stade Rennais is a reason for Leeds fans to be optimistic about the signing. At £1 million, the youngster is a major bargain for the Whites as he could potentially be crucial in their bid for promotion back to the Premier League.
He is a serious attacking threat on the right side, playing as a right-back or a right-wing-back. The former Middlesbrough full-back possesses blistering pace and nimble footwork, which will give another dimension to the Elland Road-based side’s right flank in attack.

Leeds’ Transfer Activity
After a long-standing saga, the Yorkshire club lost their star midfielder, Tyler Adams to Bournemouth. They are targeting Glen Kamara to fill the void left by the departure of USMNT International. Joel Piroe, Ethan Ampadu and Joe Rodon are some of the notable arrivals for Daniel Farke’s side. The Championship side are in desperate need of a left-back as they are short of options in that position.
