Spurs fans on Twitter have been reacting to the reported news that Sergio Reguilon picked up a knock during Spain’s 0-0 draw against Portugal on Wednesday night.
Journalist Alasdair Gold tweeted a link to an article in Football.london, which suggests that the 23-year-old left-back was substituted at half time during the game against Fernando Santos’ side having suffered a knock in the first half. The defender joined Spurs from Real Madrid in the recent summer transfer window and made his Premier League debut for the club in their 6-1 win against Manchester United last weekend, earning a solid 6.95/10 rating for his performance (per WhoScored).
Following the game, Spain manager Luis Enrique confirmed that ‘it was a blow that the doctors have to see’, and added that he hopes ‘it doesn’t get complicated’ (per the Daily Express). Jose Mourinho’s men face a resurgent West Ham side fresh from impressive wins against Wolves and Leicester City in their next Premier League fixture, so will no doubt be hoping that Reguilon is available for that game.
Do you think Reguilon will be fit for the West Ham game?
Yes
No

What a waste of time. During a pandemic no less. Just send the boy home.

Hopefully nothing serious, let’s get him home now and he’s got 10 days to rest up.

Overall, it seems clear that a lot of Spurs fans are less than happy with this news and will be hoping that the injury Reguilon picked up wasn’t serious enough to rule him out of any of the Lilywhites’ upcoming fixtures.
