Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United are challenging Arsenal for the signature of on-loan Nottingham Forest defender Djed Spence.
The English right-back caught the eye of Arsenal scouts during Forest's recent win over the Gunners in the FA Cup.

Conte has been unimpressed with right-backs Emerson Royal and Matt Doherty.
