Tottenham Hotspur are looking to offload a number of players this summer, but one peripheral figure could prove to be rather difficult to offload.
After spending the last two seasons out on loan away from Spurs, it seems almost certain that Sergio Reguilon has no future at the club.
According to the latest from The Athletic, Reguilon will be too expensive for former club, Brentford, to sign permanently, and he does not exactly have other clubs queuing up to sign him, either.
Despite a “productive” loan spell with the Bees in the latter half of last season, Brentford “cannot afford to sign him on a permanent basis,” with his high wages likely the problem there.
Meanwhile, Spurs have found only ‘limited interest’ in the Spaniard from other clubs so far this summer.
Word on Reguilon has been fairly quiet so far this summer. Over a month ago, Spurs insider, Paul O’Keefe named the left-back as one of the players the club would be looking to sell.
Alasdair Gold had previously revealed that Tottenham would be open to letting Reguilon go for a reasonable fee, especially given he is entering the final year of his contract.
The 27-year-old spent the first half of last season on loan with Manchester United, before joining Brentford in January.
He made 28 appearances across the campaign between the two clubs, registering four assists in the Premier League (Transfermarkt).

There is still plenty of time left to find a move for Reguilon, so we shouldn’t be too concerned yet. If it comes down to it, we may have to supplement his wages at a new club to make sure a transfer happens.
We cannot keep him at the club, that’s for sure, but I guess even another loan spell would be adequate for the next year and then we’ll have to let Reguilon go for free next summer. Not ideal, but that may be the only answer.
