‘I have a mental note of the doubters’: Djed Spence takes aim at Conte and Warnock

Djed Spence, the Tottenham Hotspur full-back, has been called up to the England senior squad, which he sees as a vindication of his abilities. Spence claims he keeps a mental note of those who doubted him, including Tottenham manager Antonio Conte and former Middlesbrough manager Neil Warnock. Warnock had previously warned Spence that he could be playing non-league football within five years if he did not improve his dedication. Spence's journey to the England team has been a long one, as he was sent on loan three times by Spurs before establishing himself in the Premier League last season. If he plays for the senior England team, Spence could become the first Muslim to do so.
