90Min claim that West Ham have shown interest in signing Tottenham defender Sergio Reguilon with the Spaniard currently training by himself at Spurs – while Nottingham Forest are in talks to land the left-back on loan this summer.
Reguilon, 25, joined Spurs in 2020 and has since played 67 times for Spurs. However, he fell out of the starting XI towards the end of last season under Antonio Conte – with the Italian gaffer preferring Ryan Sessegnon.
He is now on the transfer list. Part of four players that journalists have named the ‘bomb squad’, Reguilon has been barred from senior training. He, Harry Winks, Gio Lo Celso and Tanguy Ndombele have been training by themselves.
Ndombele has gone to Napoli, Lo Celso to Villarreal. Winks and Reguilon are expected to leave before the end of the window. 90Min report that West Ham have shown interest in Reguilon, after talks stalled with Emerson Palmieri.
But a move for Chelsea’s Italian defender look as if they are back on. It looks as if Reguilon is only a back-up option to Emerson. Newly-promoted Forest are in talks to land the ex-Sevilla and Real Madrid man.
West Ham have shown interest in Reguilon; Brilliant move, rivalry aside
If Reguilon and Tottenham put the rivalry between West Ham and Tottenham aside, it would be the perfect move. Reguilon would not have to relocate, and Spurs could keep a close eye on the Hammers ace.
David Moyes’ side desperately need a left-back that can create for Michail Antonio and Gianluca Scamacca. Reguilon is certainly an attacking full-back capable of laying on assists. In his 67 Spurs games, he has laid on nine assists.
West Ham also offer European football, with the Hammers fully expected to come through against Viborg after a 3-1 first-leg win. It would be ideal for all parties involved, if Spurs are open to selling to one of their rivals.
