£32M Tottenham player now keeps turning down chances to leave the club – journalist

Tottenham Hotspur have made notable strides in the summer transfer window, strengthening their squad with new signings like Timo Werner and Archie Gray. These additions, along with the departure of several players such as Tanguy Ndombele, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, and Bryan Gil, have been pivotal in reshaping the team.

However, despite these improvements, Tottenham faces a significant challenge with one player who remains resistant to leaving the club.

Sergio Reguilon, a player Tottenham acquired from Real Madrid in a £32 million deal in the summer of 2020, is at the center of this issue. Reguilon arrived with high expectations, and under then-manager Jose Mourinho, he initially delivered impressive performances. He was a regular starter in his debut season, contributing five assists.

However, Reguilon’s fortunes changed as his playing time decreased, leading to loan spells with Atletico Madrid, Manchester United, and Brentford.

Despite these efforts, Reguilon’s return to Tottenham has not rekindled his place in the team, with Ange Postecoglou omitting him from the pre-season tour to facilitate his departure.

Recent reports by Sami Mokbel reveal that Sergio Reguilon has turned down multiple offers to leave Tottenham. His primary criterion is to join a club participating in European competitions. Mokbel’s tweet highlighted Reguilon’s firm stance: “Sergio Reguilon, back at Spurs, has rejected numerous offers, wants to sign for a club playing in Europe.”

This determination has left Tottenham in a difficult position. With Destiny Udogie as the primary left-back, and Ben Davies and Micky van de Ven as backups, Reguilon is no longer needed. Despite being surplus to requirements, Reguilon’s desire to remain in European football complicates his potential transfer.

Among the many offers Reguilon has received, one destination stands out: Manchester United. According to Fabrizio Romano, Reguilon is eager to join the Red Devils, who are actively seeking a new left-back. The possibility of this transfer could provide a resolution for both Reguilon and Tottenham.

Manchester United’s interest in Reguilon would align with their need for defensive reinforcements, especially with their ongoing search for a capable left-back.

If the Red Devils decide to pursue Reguilon, it could be a mutually beneficial arrangement, solving Tottenham’s need to offload surplus players while providing Reguilon with the European football experience he desires.

As the transfer window approaches its deadline at the end of August, the future of Sergio Reguilon remains uncertain. His refusal to accept offers from clubs not participating in European competitions adds complexity to his departure from Tottenham.

While the possibility of a move to Manchester United provides a potential solution, it remains to be seen whether the Red Devils will act on their interest.

Tottenham Hotspur’s efforts to reshape their squad this summer have been notable, but Reguilon’s stubborn stance presents a unique challenge.

The outcome of this situation will likely depend on whether Manchester United or another European club meets Reguilon’s criteria, allowing him to continue his career on the continent and helping Tottenham resolve their surplus issue.
