Tottenham star Djed Spence recreates famous cigar pose he used to troll Neil Warnock after winning Europa League final

DJED SPENCE has taken a cheeky swipe at Neil Warnock after winning the Europa League.
The former Nottingham Forest full-back came on as a sub during Wednesday's 1-0 win over Manchester United in Bilbao.
Spence has enjoyed a strong year after breaking back into the Spurs first XI.
The 24-year-old had looked set to exit from North London last summer following loan stints with Rennes, Leeds and Genoa.
But he has been a rare bright spot for Spurs in the Premier League this season.
And Spence made four appearances in Europe as Tottenham ended their 17-year trophy drought.
Spence infamously trolled EFL legend Warnock following Forest's promotion to the Premier League in 2022.
He posed in the Wembley dressing room with a cigar in mouth, tagging in his former boss.
Warnock had told the flying full-back during his time at Middlesbrough his future was "either Premier League or non league."
Spence cationed the snap: "Oh, where’s my Manners! Welcome to Twitter @warnockofficial."
Typically tongue in cheek, Warnock fired back: "Well done Djed I did say you were premier league or non league, glad you listened and took my advice on board now go and enjoy your success.
He added: "Those cigars won’t do you any good though son."
Spence was at it again following Spurs' Europa League triumph - but stayed clear of tagging Warnock this time.
He shared a post to his Instagram followers on Friday, pretending to puff on a cigar alongside the Europa League trophy.
Spence wrote: "Oh, where’s my Manners! .. WELCOME TO @championsleague."
One fan responded: "So glad you repeated this pic! The 1st one was iconic."
Another said: "Aura is unmatched, love it."
While a third joked: "Are you listening Neil?!"
