Still, his opportunities with the Lilywhites appear to be blocked off for the foreseeable future.A new contract for Pedro Porro means that his preferred right-back position is likely to be taken for the future, while his other role at left-back is bolstered by Andy Robertson's arrival, on top of Destiny Udogie and Ben Davies in that area.As a result, a transfer appears likely, with Liverpool among the teams linked with a switch for Spence.



He could cover some problems with team depth, in particular for the Reds, with right-back options becoming an issue in the past year.The likelihood of a move going ahead is unclear; however, with talks for Bradley Barcola appearing to be a priority, while Ibrahim Mbaye is another winger target on the radar.Despite that current priority, Liverpool fans appear to be confident that Spence will join, purely because of his activity on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter).On X, Spence only follows five profiles: England, Tottenham, Nottingham Forest, La Liga... and Liverpool.That has only fuelled talk of a move, as the star has featured for three of the four teams he follows, Liverpool being the only one that he hasn't.Djed Spence earned admirers at the World Cup this summer(Image: ISI Photos via Getty Images)It's unclear whether Spence is a Liverpool fan or not, with that being the most likely link, as he hasn't spoken out about which team he supported growing up.However, if it does happen to be the Reds that he followed as a youngster, then it may give the team an upper hand over others in the market for the full-back's signature.It remains to be seen what happens with Spence's future as well as Liverpool's potential pursuit of a right-back, as the market enters the final few weeks.For now, Andoni Iraola's side will continue to target wingers as the main area for improvement, with the defensive department seen as the secondary port of call.As for Spence, his future could be decided late in the window, with no definitive move made for him by any team linked at this stage of the market.
