Sergio Reguilon is now attracting interest from Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce
Tottenham Hotspur made some radical changes to their squad over the summer transfer window.
Apart from making some astute additions, the Lilywhites did a brilliant job of offloading the majority of the deadwood and the players who were on the fringes of Ange Postecoglou last season.
Players such as Giovani Lo Celso, Tanguy Ndombele, Ryan Sessegnon, Ivan Perisic, Eric Dier, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Emerson Royal, and some more, either left the club on loan or permanently. However, one of Spurs’ players who was not able to find a new home during the past summer transfer window was Sergio Reguilon.
According to a report from GIVEMESPORT correspondent Ben Jacobs, Sergio Reguilon had options to leave Tottenham during the summer transfer window but the club ‘made it difficult’ for him to exit, as they wanted either a permanent departure or a loan with an obligation to buy in 2025.

Spurs signed Reguilon from Real Madrid in 2020, but he has struggled to establish himself as a first-team regular. The constant chopping and changing of managers hasn’t helped his cause, with the six-cap Spain international managing a total of only 67 appearances throughout his stint at the club thus far, scoring two goals and supplying eight assists for his side.
The left-back spent time out on loan at Manchester United and Brentford respectively last season. Having not been included in Tottenham’s pre-season tour of Asia and the Europa League group-stages squad, it became clear that the 27-year-old doesn’t find himself in Big Ange’s plans. He is supposedly one of the last outcasts at Spurs, with less than 12 months remaining on his current contract (Transfermarkt).
Ben Jacobs has revealed that Spurs’ exit terms for Reguilon were ‘quite tough’, resulting in the defender failing to find a new home away from the North London club.
With the Turkish transfer window open until September 13, Reguilon could soon be offered an escape route from Spurs, with Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce rumoured to be interested. Jose Mourinho had signed the Spaniard as the manager of Spurs four summers ago, and he now wants to be reunited with the player at Fenerbahce.

Hopefully, the Turkish club intensify their interest and sign Reguilon—either on loan or permanently.
