Tottenham Hotspur's Sergio Reguilon now fears the axe by manager Antonio Conte as Barcelona eye a surprise move to sign the former Real Madrid talent, according to reports.

The Lowdown: Conte overhaul looming?

The Spurs head coach is reportedly plotting a major summer overhaul with as many as six major signings on his mind (The Telegraph).

Conte wishes to add a reserve goalkeeper, right-wing-back, central defender, two midfielders and a new forward to his ranks as he prepares for a first full 2022/2023 season in charge at the Premier League club.

Several Lilywhites players have been tipped to make way as transfer chief Fabio Paratici is tasked with balancing the books and ensuring Conte's transfer market wishes are fulfilled.

Now, sharing an update on who could leave north London, chief football writer John Cross of The Daily Mirror has an update for supporters.

The Latest: Cross makes Reguilon claim...

According to his sources, La Liga giants Barca are eyeing a 'sensational' move to sign former Real Madrid academy ace Reguilon from Spurs.

As well as this, the 25-year-old 'fears he is not part of Conte's long-term plans' as he grows fearful of the Italian's possible axe.

It is thought that Reguilon 'could be surplus to requirements' and it looks 'increasingly likely he will leave'.

The Verdict: Let him go?

Depending on whether Madrid activate their £27.5 million buy-back clause for the defender or if it is Barca who end up swooping in, letting Reguilon depart should be considered by Paratici and Conte.

Ryan Sessegnon has been shining in the left-wing-back role when deployed and the Spaniard's exit could help to balance Spurs' worrying homegrown quota issue.

The potential fee will also bolster Paratici's transfer kitty to fund summer swoops and appeasing Conte's wishes in the summer will be crucial in keeping him at the club.

Lauded as a 'top-class' player by former Spurs keeper Paul Robinson, a Reguilon sale may well be one to watch out for regardless of his quality at times.
