'Mystery player' from Beta Squad vs AMP charity match receives Serie A transfer offer the next day

The rumoured 'mystery player' who was involved in the Beta Squad vs AMP (Any Means Possible) charity match is being strongly linked with a move to Serie A.

On Sunday afternoon, a host of YouTubers and celebrities took part in a charity match at Selhurst Park

Twitch streamer Kai Cenat featured for the AMP side alongside British YouTubers WillNe, Angry Ginge and Chris MD, while Niko Omilana, Chunkz and Danny Aarons starred for Beta Squad.

The game finished 6-6 after AMP missed two early penalties but one of the biggest talking points from the game was the appearance of a mystery professional footballer.

We know that the player currently plys his trade in the Premier League thanks to Beta Squad member Sharky.

“This player will be wearing a mask and the reason is because this player has played in the Premier League and is playing current professional football - Champions League level," he said. "So we can't reveal his identity.”

So who was it? Many believe Tottenham Hotspur full-back Djed Spence was the player in question after fans analysed his running style throughout Saturday's. match.

In fact, Spence's sister Karla-Simone Spence appeared to be present at the game, fuelling more speculation around the masked player.

The 23-year-old defender, who spent the last six months of the 2023/24 campaign on loan at Serie A side Genoa, is currently contracted to Spurs.

But the former Middlesbrough man could leave North London in the near future after Genoa approached Tottenham to sign Spence on a permanent transfer.

That's according to Fabrizio Romano, who claims negotiations are "ongoing" between the two clubs, although a move will depend on the price.

Romano provided a further update on Tuesday suggesting Spurs are "open to negotiating" with the Italian side ahead of a permanent deal.

"Talks are taking place as Genoa want Spence and Vitinha (from OM) to stay at the club next season," he added.

Spence, who signed for Spurs from Middlesbrough in July 2022 for an initial £12.5 million, joined Championship side Leeds on a season-long loan in August.

However, the full-back was restricted to just seven league appearances after being sidelined for over two months with a knee injury.

His loan was then cut short on January 4, 2024.

Leeds manager Daniel Farke suggested concerns over Spence's attitude was one of the reasons behind the decision.

"I don't want to talk too much about Djed right now, because he's back at Tottenham and I totally respect that he's their player," he said.

"Listen, in the summer we came here in order to create and to bring new values and to create a new culture within the club and when we speak about a player if he's on here on a permanent or a loan deal, we have expectations and these expectations are in several topics important."
