A family outing to West Mersea on 22 July turned to tragedy when a seven-year-old boy and five relatives got into difficulty in the water.
Spence is reportedly attracting transfer interest from Everton and Inter Milan. This follows his performances during England's World Cup campaign, where he featured in all eight of the team's matches. As reported by The Standard, Spence started the semi-final match against Argentina.
De Zerbi expressed a desire for Spence to remain at Tottenham. However, he also conveyed that he would not compel any player to stay if they wished to depart. De Zerbi made similar remarks regarding another player, Lucas Bergvall, who has also indicated a wish to leave, as reported by The Standard.
“I would like you to stay if you want to stay. If you don't want to stay, if you want to leave, then you have to leave.”

Competition and Squad Changes
Spence faces competition for the right-back position from Pedro Porro, who started 32 Premier League games last season and has recently signed a new contract. The Standard reported that Spence also has the capability to play at left-back, but opportunities there may be limited following the arrival of Andy Robertson.
The club has spent a significant amount on new signings this summer. Reports suggest that other players, including captain Cristian Romero and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, are also expected to depart before the transfer window closes. De Zerbi mentioned a prior agreement to facilitate Romero's exit if the team avoided relegation, as reported by The Standard.
