Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence has just removed all Spurs-related images and mentions from his Instagram page.
Over the summer, Spence completed a £20 million relocation from Middlesbrough to north London (The Guardian).
Last season, while on loan at Nottingham Forest, the 22-year-old played well in the Championship.
His impressive displays earned him a move to Spurs but he has found chances hard to come by under Antonio Conte.
Spence has only managed three substitute appearances in the Premier League, with all of them coming in the final moments of games.
The Englishman did play for 25 minutes against his old side Forest in the Carabao Cup but was then dropped to the bench days later against Leeds. Now, the wing-back has removed all mentions of his club on his Instagram page.
Spence has deleted all pictures and mentions of the Spurs
Spence previously mentioned Spurs in his bio on the social media platform and had posted pictures of himself in action for Conte’s men.
But he has seemingly just deleted everything that relates to Tottenham from his page.
The youngster has left one post on his Instagram page, which is a selection of pictures from his England U21 appearance back in September.
The Athletic recently reported that Spence isn’t frustrated with his situation at Tottenham and understands that he has work to do to get to the level required under Conte.
It’s not a great sign that he has removed all mentions of the club from his Instagram page, as this is usually what players do before a move.
But then again, there could be nothing more to it as there are still pictures of Spence in a Spurs shirt on his Twitter account.
The Times reported earlier this month that Spence could be set to head out on loan during the January transfer window.
After a frustrating start to the season for the youngster, that may be the best move for both parties.
Emerson Royal and Matt Doherty have failed to impress from right wing-back, yet Spence hasn’t got a real chance to impress Conte as of yet.
If he heads out on loan to a Premier League club to build up some valuable experience in the division, he could come back to Spurs over the summer and push for a place in Conte’s side.
