£12.5m signing from Middlesbrough failed to make an impactHe joins another Spurs loanee, Joe Rodon, at Elland Road
Tottenham have loaned Djed Spence to Leeds for the season as part of a drive to ship out unwanted players before the transfer deadline on Friday night.
Spence, who joined Spurs from Middlesbrough for an initial £12.5m last summer, failed to win the favour of the then manager Antonio Conte, who notoriously described him as a club signing. Spence went on loan to Rennes in January, starting his first nine games before losing his place and then sustaining a knee injury that led to him being sent home early.
