Spring boot (2.0.3) with Apache Ignite (2.7) Spring dependency conflict - spring-boot

Question

I have integrated spring boot (2.0.3) with Apache ignite (2.7),while starting apache ignite in a embeded mode, It is throwing Null Pointer Exception while creating bean.
With the analysis, i was able to figure out the issue.
Spring boot (2.0.3) internally has dependency on spring (5.0.7) and Apache Ignite on spring (4.3.18).
while creating bean for ignite.cfg, apache ignite is referring the spring (5.0.7) due to priority in pom.xml and is throwing null pointer exception.
Solution I tried
1. I moved the ignite dependency at the begining of pom.xml just above spring boot dependency, that solved the ignite problem, but issues are getting created for spring boot (2.0.3 ) because of older spring(4.3.18) versions
please find the below pom

-------------------------------------------------
I need suggestion on below points to tackle the above mentioned scenario.
1.Is apache ignite supports spring (5.x) versions, so that i can exclude dependency from apache-ignite and it can use spring dependency from spring boot ?
Or any other suggestions to tackle this isssue ?
