Despite all parties pushing for a move, Sergio Reguilon looks set to stay at Tottenham Hotspur rather than get the transfer that all desired. Until January, the player will simply be a surplus.
Tottenham Hotspur Stuck: Sergio Reguilon Fails to Get Transfer
Move ‘Fast-Fading’
Dan Kilpatrick has revealed that a Reguilon exit now looks unlikely. He explained: “The prospect of securing a move before the deadline is fast fading”. If the Spaniard was to find a move, it would be to Turkey or Saudi Arabia, but he is “likely to remain”.

One option in Turkey is Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbache. The former Spurs manager obviously has links with the club, and coached Reguilon during his brightest spells during the 2020/21 season. Alternatively, the Saudi Pro League has been a great destination for an “unwanted star”. They will pay high fees and wages, though the left-back may prefer a career with European football in the Süper Lig.
What Does the Future Hold for Sergio Reguilon at Tottenham Hotspur?
Should the 27-year-old stay with the Lilywhites, he’ll have a tough six months ahead. Ange Postecoglou revealed that if the player doesn’t leave, he doesn’t need to be integrated back into the squad. The Australian is content with Destiny Udogie, though if rotation is needed, he may look to a right-back or centre-back.

Even if Postecoglou wants Reguilon to play, there is no space in the Europa League squad for registration. He could play in the Premier League but it remains to be seen if the Spurs board will let him, as they were highly keen on letting him go this window. We should expect a definite move in January if not tonight.
