# Tottenham: Forest in talks to sign Sergio Reguilon

**Nottingham Forest are interested in taking [Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) left-back Sergio Reguilon on loan for the season, according to The Athletic’s David Ornstein.**

### **The Lowdown: Position at the club**

After [falling out of favour](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sergio-reguilon/leistungsdaten/spieler/282429/plus/0?saison=2021) at Spurs under manager Antonio Conte, the 25-year-old’s future at Hotspur Way seemed uncertain as Fabio Paratici prepared for a busy summer in the transfer market.

However, his position soon became clear after he was [omitted](https://www.sportbible.com/football/antonio-conte-leaves-four-senior-players-out-of-tottenham-tour-squad-20220709) from Tottenham’s squad for their pre-season tour of South Korea, alongside the likes of Giovani Lo Celso and Tanguy Ndombele, who have now left the club.

### **The Latest: Ornstein’s news**

After a lack of interest so far this summer, Ornstein has shared news of a [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) club considering making a loan move for the Spain international.

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/David_Ornstein/status/1561632451021127680), the reliable journalist claimed:

“Nottingham Forest considering taking Tottenham left-back Sergio Reguilon on loan. Talks between clubs in recent weeks as #NFFC seek cover for Omar Richards. #THFC would want full salary covered if 25yo goes. He’s approaching match fitness.”

Shifting the full-backs wages off the books would bank Daniel Levy [£2.5m](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/tottenham-hotspur-fc/sergio-reguil%C3%B3n-62652/#:~:text=Current%20Contract,cap%20hit%20of%20%C2%A32%2C500%2C000.) for the year.

### **The Verdict: Disappointing situation**

Reguilon arrived at Spurs in 2020 bearing the weight of high expectations after joining from La Liga giants Real Madrid in a [deal worth up to £32m.](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12073933/sergio-reguilon-tottenham-sign-real-madrid-defender-on-five-year-deal)

At the beginning of last season, the 25-year-old was a guaranteed starter in Nuno Espirito Santo’s starting eleven, in which he played the [full 90 minutes](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sergio-reguilon/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/282429/plus/0/trainer_id/16520/saison/2021) in the side’s first eight Premier League games.

However, under Conte, the Spaniard’s playing time has become far more sporadic. Reguilon featured in the starting team [13 more](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sergio-reguilon/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/282429/plus/1/trainer_id/3517/saison/2021) times, often being substituted early on in the second half.

Having failed to make an appearance so far [this season](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sergio-reguilon/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/282429/plus/1/trainer_id/3517), a move away from north London seems to be the best option for the left-back, who needs a fresh start to get his career back on track.
