Sergio Reguilon has been spotted in the home end of Chelsea’s Champions League clash against Real Madrid on Wednesday night, as he has posted on his Instagram story.

The 25-year-old joined Tottenham from Real Madrid for £32 million in 2019 (Sky Sports), so it seems like he was cheering on his former side in the capital.

At first, the Spain international posted an image of Stamford Bridge, as you can see below, with Madrid 2-1 up at the time, before he posted an image with his girlfriend at the ground.

There’s no doubt that some Chelsea fans would have raised an eyebrow when they would have seen him in their end, but the left-back would have enjoyed the show Madrid put on.

Karim Benzema, who is supposedly 34, is producing performances like a 25-year-old because he scored a quite stunning hat-trick during his side’s 3-1 win.

This was the first-leg of the quarter-final Champions League tie, but Carlo Ancelotti’s side will feel they should get the job done in the return leg.

Reguilon enjoyed success in Europe himself when he helped Sevilla lift the Europa League and he will be hoping to return to the big time in Tottenham colours.

Spurs are sitting fourth in the Premier League table and they have a great chance to return to Champions League football.

Chelsea are sitting in third, and like they have been for a while now, should stay there when the final ball is kicked in May.

But it seems as though it might just be a straight shootout between two London clubs – Tottenham and Arsenal – in who will finish fourth.

Manchester United and West Ham United are lurking in the background, but the ball is in the court of the north London duo, that’s for sure.
