# Tottenham Hotspur: Sergio Reguilon reportedly wants to go back to Spain

**According to a report by [El Gol Digital](https://www.elgoldigital.com/el-sevilla-intentara-alternativa-arriesgada-tras-el-no-de-marcos-alonso/), Tottenham summer signing Sergio Reguilon wishes to return to Spain after falling into an ‘unstable project’ in north London, coming as a potential blow for manager Jose Mourinho and the Lilywhites.**

### Tottenham dealt potential Reguilon blow

Reguilon has arguably been impressive since joining from Real Madrid in 2020, with a report from [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-new-signing-has-really-blown-mourinho-coaches-away/) at the back end of last year describing him as ‘phenomenal’ in training.

He has also been a regular for Mourinho since signing at Hotspur Way, starting 16 Premier League matches whilst grabbing three assists in that time ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/362275/Show/Sergio-Reguil%C3%B3n)). He is in the top four Spurs performers for both tackles and interceptions per game over the course of the season ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/30/Show/England-Tottenham)).

Providing an update on Reguilon’s future amid the presence of a buy-back Real Madrid clause, [El Gol Digital](https://www.elgoldigital.com/el-sevilla-intentara-alternativa-arriesgada-tras-el-no-de-marcos-alonso/) have provided a potentially alarming claim.

### Transfer Tavern take

The Spanish outlet stated that he now wishes to return to Spain, preferably with his former club Sevilla, as the 24-year-old emerges as a top target for Los Palanganas at left-back.

A potential blow in Spurs’ wishes to keep Reguilon, it is stated by [El Gol Digital](https://www.elgoldigital.com/el-sevilla-intentara-alternativa-arriesgada-tras-el-no-de-marcos-alonso/) that he wants to go back to his homeland amid this interest, but only time will tell what comes of the report.

One of only two left-back options, it’s safe to say that Mourinho will not want to lose the Spaniard after a solid debut season.
