How Everton can now 'complicate' £30m Djed Spence transfer

Everton may yet win the race for Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence.

The England international has emerged as a transfer option for the Toffees as David Moyes looks to bolster his defence.

As things stand, the Blues have a clear lack of quality in depth at full-back and the Spurs ace could solve that problem.

Spence can play at both right-back and left-back, which will certainly come in handy at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

The Englishman is attracting plenty of interest in the transfer window after starring for the Three Lions at the World Cup.

Thomas Tuchel surprised many when he opted to take the defender to North America, but he has exceeded expectations as England won the bronze medal after beating France in a thrilling encounter on 18 July.

Everton could have Djed Spence transfer opening

Goodison News has extensively covered Everton's interest in Spence, but it remains to be seen how his situation will develop.

The 25-year-old has also emerged as a target for Inter Milan, who are planning to bid around £30million for the versatile defender.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport on 19 July, the full-back wants to return to Italy, but Tottenham won't make things easy for the Serie A side.

Spurs' demands could potentially hinder the Nerazzurri and the prospect of other teams joining the race could 'complicate' matters.

The Friedkin Group must show their ambition at Hill Dickinson Stadium this summer and there's arguably no better way to do that than get a deal over the line for Spence.

Moyes has relied on Jake O'Brien and Vitalii Mykolenko as his two full-backs at Everton.

While the Scottish manager showed faith in the two defenders, they lacked the cutting edge needed in the final third.

O'Brien and Mykolenko often frustrated fans with their lack of initiative and quality in the final third, something that the Toffees undoubtedly need to improve next season.

Spence has shown his abilities at both ends of the pitch during the World Cup and could make the difference as the Blues look to progress in the Premier League.

The Tottenham star can add an extra edge to the Merseyside outfit's attack, but it remains to be seen whether they can sign him from Spurs.
