Tottenham Hotspur left-back Sergio Reguilón appears on the brink of a move to Manchester United. The transfer speculation surrounding Reguilón has intensified, with recent reports suggesting that a switch to Old Trafford is increasingly likely.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Reguilón, who is not in Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou’s plans, is eager to return to Manchester United.

Having previously spent time on loan at United, the Spanish defender is reportedly keen to rejoin the club.

Romano highlighted Reguilón’s strong desire to make a return and suggested that Manchester United is well aware of his current situation at Tottenham. This awareness could lead to a move being finalized in the final days of the transfer window.

Reguilón's tenure at Tottenham began in September 2020 when he signed a five-year deal with the club. The transfer included a £27.5 million buy-back clause.

Despite a promising start, including a goal in a 2-1 victory against Leeds United in November 2021, Reguilón's time at Tottenham has been marked by inconsistency, primarily due to recurring injuries and multiple loan spells.

Last season, Reguilón was loaned to Manchester United to provide cover for their injured left-backs. His stint at Old Trafford showed some promise, although it was relatively short-lived.

Following this, he spent the latter part of the season on loan at Brentford, where he contributed four assists in 16 appearances. Despite these spells providing glimpses of his potential, Reguilón’s future at Tottenham remains uncertain.

Now in the final year of his contract with Tottenham, Reguilón is set to make a decision about his next move. A transfer to Manchester United could offer him a fresh start, which he is reportedly eager to embrace.

We also have to wait and see how FC Barcelona's interest in the player develops, with recent reports suggesting that there is an internal debate within the club's board regarding Reguilón's situation.
