Spanish journalist Gerard Romero told his Twitch channel Jijantes FC (18/03/22 – as relayed by Fichajes.net) that Sergio Reguilon’s agent has offered the Tottenham star to Barcelona.
Reguilon found himself falling behind Ryan Sessegnon in the pecking order at Tottenham over recent weeks but the Spaniard has started Tottenham’s last two games after the England Under-21 international suffered a hamstring injury against Everton.
According to Romero, Reguilon doesn’t ‘fit into’ Antonio Conte’s long-term plans at Tottenham as a left wing-back.
He asserts that the former Real Madrid man would be open to a return to La Liga in the summer and even dreams of a potential return to Santiago Bernabeu as Marcelo’s replacement.
Romero adds that a move to Camp Nou in the summer is also a possibility for the Tottenham man, with Barcelona on the lookout for Jordi Alba’s long-term replacement.
However, the journalist also said that there are plenty of other left-backs that Barca are also considering, with Valencia’s Jose Gaya on the top of their wishlist.
Spurs Web Opinion
Reguilon has shown that he can be a decent squad option but I would not be too disappointed if Real Madrid activated the reported £33.6m buy-back clause this summer (ABC).
I believe that we should be able to sign a decent replacement, who is better suited to playing as a left wing-back, for that sort of money. Besides, Conte also seems to believe that Sessegnon has a high ceiling as a wing-back.
