There was news that Sergio Reguilon could be offered by Manchester United.
England Football Insider said on the 12th (Korea time) 'Manchester United will offer Reguilon a way to return to Old Trafford this summer. Manchester United want to sign Reguilon to save Luke Shaw's backup resources' reports.
Shaw then struggled with injuries during his time at United, and securing a backup for him is Manchester United manager Erik ten-Hach's top priority. Ben Chilwell is the player Manchester United are monitoring, but Reguilon could offer a simpler option after a six-month loan spell with the club last season.
Reguilon could leave Tottenham for the first time in three years this summer. When Reguilon moved to Tottenham after performing well in Seville, he was expected to take charge of Tottenham's side defender by showing good chemistry with Son Heung-min. He seemed to adapt well with an easy performance in the first season, but Reguilon's future began to change with Antonio Conte's appointment.
Conte didn't like Reguilon's performance in the 300-form. In the end, Ivan Perisic was recruited, and Reguilon was pushed out. He left for Atletico Madrid on loan and tried to get a chance to play, but his injury did not go the way he wanted it to.

In the transfer window last summer, Reguilon suddenly left for Manchester United on loan at the end of the transfer window. Reguilon, who left for Brentford again after a half-season loan, revealed that Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou lied to him.
He said "I was very satisfied during the pre-season. Coach Postecoglou was also satisfied with me. He said he included me in his plan. But the situation was strange. I had to leave training next month, and I didn't know what happened. I knew I could play for Tottenham," he said angrily.
Reguilon has joined Tottenham's team training after his loan at Brentford, but Tottenham are trying to release Reguilon. Tottenham is so serious about releasing Reguilon that it has unusually lowered the transfer fee for players. According to Football Insider, Tottenham are looking for a cheap £10 million (about W17.9 billion) transfer fee.
United have had problems at left full-back throughout last season. Shaw collapsed early with an injury, and backup Taryl Malacia also ruined the season with an injury. Looking at Shaw's injury history, additional backups are needed. Since other positions are more urgent, it seems that they are also considering how to recruit and re-hire Reguilon cheaply.
Football Insider added 'Other European teams are also interested in Reguilon, but a move to Manchester United would allow him to remain in the English Premier League. 'This is a deal that could benefit all parties because Tottenham earn money to reinvest and Reguilon can continue his career,' it added.
