Middlesbrough defender Djed Spence has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for a number of Premier League clubs.

The 20-year-old has been used on a regular basis in the Championship this season, making five starts and three substitute appearances.

Having previously been linked with a switch to Tottenham Hotspur, his form for the North-East side has only led to more interest from elsewhere.

According to TEAMtalk, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton are among the clubs who are contemplating an approach for the prospect.

The report suggests that Newcastle United and Crystal Palace are also monitoring the development of the youngster in the second tier.

While Spence has a contract at the Riverside Stadium until 2023, club officials may be prepared to consider any big-money offers during the coronavirus pandemic.
