Former Tottenham scout questions Djed Spence's transfer to Inter
Summary

Bryan King, a former senior scout at Tottenham Hotspur, is perplexed by the sale of Djed Spence to Inter Milan for £25 million. King argues that Spence, a full England international and standout player during the World Cup, was crucial to Spurs and that the transfer fee was inadequate. Tottenham did not sign a replacement after spending over £400 million during the summer transfer window, leaving Archie Gray, a midfielder, to fill in at right-back. King expressed doubts about the decision to release Spence and suggested other players could have been moved on instead.
