According to Mundo Deportivo, Sergio Regulion needs more time to get to full fitness, with the left-back still a significant way off reaching 100 per cent.
This campaign has been one to forget for Reguilon, who has only made four league appearances since his loan switch to Atletico last summer (Transfermartk)
The left-back arrived at the Spanish capital with a groin strain before suffering from pubalgia and then picked up another hamstring injury back in February.
Mundo Deportivo now state that Reguilon is yet to recover fully from the latter and is only ‘halfway’ back to fitness, having only returned to training recently after a 40-day absence.
The report claims that the on-loan Tottenham man only trained ‘half-heartedly’ in his first sessions back and remains a ‘doubt’ moving forwards.
It is explained that Reguilon is now continuing to work with recovery coaches at Atletico as he is focused on returning to the field as quickly as possible.
Mundo Deportivo also add that there is hope at the La Liga club that the Spaniard will play some part for the remainder of the season before returning to Spurs.
Spurs Web Opinion
This season has been almost a complete write-off for Reguilon. Whoever replaces Conte at Spurs, it seems like the 26-year-old is unlikely to have a future at the North London club.
The left-back would be hoping that he is able to play a few more games before the end of the season and put himself in the shop window ahead of the summer.
