      It remains unclear whether the Italian side are willing to offer him a new deal with the player supposedly wanting an improved two-year contract.

      Meanwhile, Inter have reportedly been left underwhelmed by the performance of centre-back Francesco Acerbi.
      As a result they could swoop for Smalling to replace him. More

      The 21-year-old has played just 26 minutes in all comps since his £20m move from Middlesbrough.
      But the summer signing was given his first proper chunk of game-time in the 4-0 win over the Scottish Premiership outfit.
      And although it was a low-key training ground friendly being played behind closed doors, he still made his mark.
      Spence proved a constant threat on the right, regularly combining with the impressive Dejan Kulusevski.

      He should have marked his first start for the club with a goal, but was unable to slide hope after being found by the Swede.
      Regardless, it was still a valuable 75-minute cameo and many Tottenham fans were thrilled by what they saw.
      One said: “Djed Spence has been the best player on the pitch.”
      A second responded: “How does Djed Spence not start every game man.”

      Tottenham 4 Motherwell 0: Kulusevski scores one and assists two as Swede continues impressive comeback from injury

      by

      Matt Doherty was also on the scoresheet in the training ground friendlyCredit: Getty
      And on this evidence, he’ll be keen to make up for lost time once the campaign resumes on Boxing Day.
      It took him two minutes to make a difference, capitalising on a loose pass in the Motherwell defence before gobbling up the chance with aplomb.
      Kulusevski should have had an assist to his name soon after, but Djed Spence, another catching the eye, was unable to beat Liam Kelly at his near post.
      Tottenham were in such control that keeper Brandon Austin was caught napping and almost gifted the Scottish outfit an equaliser.

      Fortunately, his closed down clearance landed the wrong side of the post.
      Antonio Conte’s side did double their advantage just before the half hour mark when some close control from Bryan Gil allowed Matt Doherty to cut inside and fire home.
      Gil nearly helped himself to goal on the half hour mark, but was denied by a flying save from Kelly, although more great work from Kulusevski did see him score just before the break.
      The ex-Juventus man continued to torment the Motherwell backline with his silky footwork in the second period, showing little signs of rustiness despite his recent layoff.

      And Kulusevski set up Spurs’ fourth with 20 minutes left as his fine run won a corner that he put on Doherty’s head for his second.
      Tottenham weren’t able to add to their tally, although the likes of Davinson Sanchez and Yves Bissouma did get valuable minutes in their legs before the restart.
      They ended the game with a team of youngsters on the pitch as Conte opted to make a host of changes late on. More
