According to Sunday’s reports, Genoa is aiming to secure Tottenham-owned full-back Djed Spence on a permanent basis for the 2024-25 season. However, they will need to reach a new agreement with the North London side first.
Spence spent the latter half of the 2023-24 campaign on loan with Genoa, featuring in 16 out of a possible 18 Serie A matches after his arrival, with only four of those outings ending in defeat.
In order to secure Spence from Tottenham, Genoa is looking to renegotiate the terms of the purchase. Initially, Spence joined Genoa on loan with an option to buy clause set at a reported €10m. However, updates from TMW indicate that the Grifone are seeking to bring down the asking price for the Englishman to a more reasonable €8m.
Additionally, there are suggestions that Genoa may consider including 19-year-old centre-back and Uruguay youth international Alan Matturro as part of a player-plus-cash exchange.
