The North London club are considering including Djed Spence and Joe Rodon in the negotiations in order to tempt the Forest hierarchy into accepting the offer. The two players offered are on the right side of the age spectrum at 22 and 25 years of age respectively, which could play a part in City Ground-based club&#8217;s consideration of the offer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch: <\/strong>REVEALED &#8211; The Four Steps to Spurs Reaching European Football with Ange Postecoglou<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"REVEALED - The Four Steps to Spurs Reaching European Football with Ange Postecoglou\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/glAPw3kAAnQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Spence was signed in the summer of 2022 but he found it hard to get regular playing time in the initial months. This followed a spell out on loan to French side, Rennes where he continued his development. The young right-back is no stranger to Forest, having played a pivotal role in their Championship promotion-winning campaign in 2021\/22. Rodon also spent last season out on loan to Rennes making 22 appearances across all competitions. The Welsh Centre-back had previously spent two seasons in the Premier League where he could only accumulate 15 outings.<\/p>\n<h3>Spurs\u2019 Interest and Forest\u2019s Valuation of Their Prodigy<\/h3>\n<p>While the club has had a successful incoming transfer window, the uncertainty surrounding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skysports.com\/football\/news\/12040\/12935897\/harry-kane-bayern-munich-preparing-94-6m-bid-for-tottenham-striker-but-time-running-out-to-strike-a-deal\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harry Kane&#8217;s future<\/a> has left their forward line in jeopardy.
