Barcelona are reportedly interested in signing 27-year-old Tottenham Hotspur defender Sergio Reguilon this summer.
According to an update by Sky Sports journalist Lyall Thomas, Barcelona have now made an enquiry for 27-year-old Tottenham defender Sergio Reguilon. The Blaugrana are exploring the conditions of a possible cut-price deal.
Reguilon has struggled to make an impact in English football since joining Tottenham, and he needs to leave them permanently. A return to La Liga would be ideal for him. The Spaniard was a quality player in the Spanish top flight before his move to the Premier League, and he will look to get back to that level once again.
Reguilon would fancy Barcelona move
The opportunity to join Barcelona would be quite attractive. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the chance to play for them can be hard to turn down for most players. Reguilon is still very much at the peak of his powers, and he could be a useful player for the Spanish giants.
Meanwhile, he does not have a future at Tottenham either, and the North London club will be looking to sell him permanently. Barcelona need to improve their squad this summer, and they will look to get rid of the fringe players. Selling Reguilon will bring in the funds to improve their playing squad.
The Spanish international defender would get to make a fresh start as well. It will be interesting to see if Barcelona follow up on their enquiry with an official proposal to sign the 27-year-old defender. He is capable of operating as the left-back as well as a wing-back.
Barcelona are going through financial limitations, and they will be hoping to snap up bargain buys this summer. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to sell him for a nominal price. Recent reports suggested they had given permission to the Spaniard to speak with other clubs.
Spurs have sufficient depth in the full-back areas, and they will not be able to provide the Spanish international with ample game time. They will hope to sell him for a reasonable price this summer, and it will be interesting to see if Barcelona can submit an acceptable offer for the player in the coming weeks.
