You do that and you win trophies, you win titles.”Spence is certainly not short of confidenceThe Tottenham defender gave this interview following the club’s loss on penalties to Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup – a game where the 25-year-old managed to win duels time and again against the best players in the world.When asked if he could take confidence from his performance against PSG, Spence responded: “Yeah, they’re all good players, but I wouldn’t say it gives me any confidence because I am already confident.”Reports over recent days have claimed that Spence is on the verge of signing a four-year contract at Spurs, but the defender refused to divulge any information on that.When asked if he has agreed a new deal, the former Middlesbrough man said: “No, no update on that unfortunately.”READ MORE: Tottenham fans will be intrigued by what Eberechi Eze did after the final whistle vs ChelseaThe post Djed Spence makes admission about Tottenham’s priority under Thomas Frank appeared first on Spurs Web.
