Tottenham are actively working to offload several players this summer, with Sergio Reguilon among those expected to leave.

Earlier it was reported that Manchester United are considering making a move for him. And journalist Ben Jacobs reports that Borussia Dortmund have also shown interest in the Spanish defender.

Jacobs shared this update on the Last Word on Spurs podcast, indicating that Dortmund are considering Reguilon for their left-back position.

A move to Germany presents a significant opportunity for Reguilon. Dortmund is a prominent club in the Bundesliga and made a strong impression in Europe, finishing as runners-up in last season’s Champions League.

Since joining Tottenham in September 2020 on a five-year deal from Real Madrid, Reguilon has had a mixed experience. He has faced challenges and limited playing time under various managers at Spurs.

In recent seasons, the 27-year-old left-back has been loaned to multiple clubs. He spent the 2022-2023 season at Atletico Madrid, followed by a brief stint at Manchester United to cover for injured left-backs.

His loan at United was cut short, and he was then loaned to Brentford for the latter half of last season, where he made a positive impression by providing four assists in 16 appearances.

With Borussia Dortmund now expressing interest, Reguilon has the chance to rejuvenate his career in the Bundesliga.

Ben Jacobs notes that the German club, having missed out on Dutch left-back Ian Maatsen to Aston Villa, sees Reguilon as a viable alternative.

Jacobs stated:

“The only thing I would say in terms of a new suitor is that I’ve heard in the last 24 hours that Dortmund could be one to watch.

“We know that Dortmund wanted Ian Maatsen, he’s now a Villa player and Dortmund are therefore looking for a player in that position and internally they have discussed Reguilon as a possibility.”

This potential transfer would be beneficial for both the player and Tottenham, enabling Spurs to streamline their squad while offering Reguilon a fresh start at a top European club.
