Spurs fans on Twitter have been reacting to the reported suggestion that Inter were in serious talks to sign Sergio Reguilon in the recent transfer window.
According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano in his ‘Here We Go Podcast’ (via TranSPURS), the Serie A side were keen on signing the Spanish international, but once he had the opportunity to join Tottenham he did so, as he wanted to move to the Premier League. The 23-year-old joined from Real Madrid in a deal worth £27 million, although Los Blancos included a clause which means they can buy the defender back (as per Football.london).
It is no surprise to hear that Spurs were not the only side interested in signing the left-back this summer, as he was extremely impressive in his performances on loan with Sevilla last season, as he earnt a superb 7.10 rating for his performances in La Liga (per WhoScored), and he also helped Julen Lopetegui’s side win the Europa League.
Does this news make you love Reguilon even more?

Spurs fans continued to share their delight with this news, in their replies, with one fan suggesting that perhaps this was the reason why Inter were unwilling to budge on their asking price for Milan Skriniar when negotiating with the Lilywhites during the recent transfer window.
No wonder they wouldn’t sell us skriniar, they were still mad about this
