Meanwhile, Spurs appear to be closing in on their first signing of the window under Antonio Conte. It has been reported that they have agreed a deal to sign Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic, with his contract set to expire at the end of the campaign. His rise has certainly been meteoric - and somewhat surprising considering that parent club Middlesbrough were happy to loan him out at the start of the season. Key to their promotion charge this term has been the on-loan Spence.
The 21-year-old is likely to move on Middlesbrough in the summer after his promotion winning season with Forest.

You can also catch up with the ins, outs and analysis on Sky Sports News. And I just wanted the players to know I will be their biggest supporter and give them everything through thick and thin. My family are here, the players' families are here - this football club is about belonging to a city. And of all the good goals we've scored this season, we get one like that - but it doesn't matter. And that's what we've done showing an attitude and a commitment to not get beat. "I'm really pleased for the players and the supporters.
Djed Spence was part of the Nottingham Forest side that won promotion to the Premier League.
Boro hold the power having made Spence extend his contract back in January before allowing him to rejoin Forest on loan. Spence struggled under Warnock as the former Boro boss often alluded to his attitude off the pitch. If that is the end of his time in a Forest shirt, what a way to sign off."

Nottingham Forest hero Djed Spence aimed a dig at former Middlesbrough manager Neil Warnock after winning Premier League promotion - and the iconic coach ...
The interaction came after Spence struggled under Warnock at Middlesbrough last season. The tried and tested 73-year-old instead offered a quick-witted response in his trademark style. Right-back Spence played a vital role in helping Forest land Premier League promotion this season.
Djed Spence had aimed a dig at former Middlesbrough manager Neil Warnock after winning Premier League promotion.
Having extended Spence's contract before allowing him to re-join Forest, and re-negotiating the terms of the loan deal to financially benefit Boro better, they are now set to land an eight-figure fee for him in the summer transfer window. Neil Warnock had a brilliant response to Djed Spence after the defender's dig at the former Middlesbrough boss. That was a major reason why the former Boro boss ultimately axed the defender last summer.
What might have been a straightforward transfer is harder now that Forest is in the Premier League.
But there are plenty of decent options at that position out there, and there could come a point where a bidding war pushes the price for Spence past what Spurs are reasonably able to pay. I’ll be honest and say that I’m not fully understanding why Spurs are so keen on Spence — I watched the Championship playoff final between Forest and Huddersfield, and while Djed has potential, he didn’t show a whole lot that convinced me he could make the leap to top level Premier League football next season. Middlesbrough, Spence’s home club, loaned him to fellow Championship side Nottingham Forest, and Forest just got themselves promoted to the Premier League via the Championship playoff.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST will try to turn Djed Spence's loan permanent after winning promotion.But they face a battle with Champions League-qualified Totte.
Spence celebrated his promotion success with a light-hearted dig at old boss Neil Warnock, who had deemed him not up to snuff when Boro boss and sent him on loan to Forest. That would mean negotiating a price with Boro, who received substantial fees as part of the loan agreement for Forest reaching the play-offs and gaining promotion. Forest boss Steve Cooper would love to keep the right wing-back but there is no clause in the loan deal to turn the switch permanent.
