Spurs defender Djed Spence has identified his pathway to the England national team setup, picking out the benchmark player he hopes to emulate.
Tottenham Hotspur defender Djed Spence remains determined to earn a place in the England national team, despite being overlooked in recent squad selections.
The full-back has been in impressive form this season for club but has yet to receive a senior call-up for the Three Lions.
During the most recent March international break, Arsenal youngster Miles Lewis-Skelly was chosen ahead of Spence in Thomas Tuchel’s squad.
However, the Spurs fullback remains steadfast in his ambitions, outlining his pathway to an international debut.

AFC Leopards boss reveals strategy used to fill up Nyayo Stadium for Mashemeji Derby
AFC Leopards chairman Dan Shikanda has shared how the club managed to fill up Nyayo Stadium for the Mashemeji Derby that ended goalless against Gor Mahia.
“Now you mentioned it, England, yeah. Because I see you playing, and at the moment, you're playing as well as anybody in the league. And you're not even playing in your normal position. Who are the other fullbacks that you go, ‘You know what? That’s the standard’?” asked Ferdinand.
“I always looked at Kyle Walker, to be fair,” Spence responded. “You know, what a player, phenomenal player, what he’s done in the game. For me, the best right-back in Premier League history," replied Spence.
Walker, a former Manchester City right-back, was once in a similar position to Spence, playing for Tottenham while trying to break into the England squad.
He eventually secured a spot and became the first-choice right-back under former England manager Gareth Southgate.
