Tottenham decided to discount the transfer fee to clear Sergio Reguilon.

British Football Insider said on the 10th (Korea time) 'Tottenham is willing to accept Reguilon's offer to cut prices this summer. Tottenham want to fully sell Reguilon, who left on loan twice last season, this summer and are ready to accept an offer of 10 million pounds (about 17.7 billion won)," the report said.

Reguilon's current value is 12 million euros (about 17.9 billion won), but the transfer fee is rarely lower than the player's ransom. All the more so considering Reguilon is still 27 years old, old enough to play his prime. He didn't miss a season due to a serious injury. Last season, Reguilon left Manchester United and Brentford on loan and showed his ability to work well enough in the English Premier League (EPL).

If Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy, known as Zandori, even thinks of lowering the transfer fee in the sale of players, it means that Tottenham is desperate in selling players. Tottenham has predicted a massive recruitment and release in the transfer market this summer, but there is no movement at all except for the recruitment of Archie Gray and the release of Joe Roden so far. There is little movement, even considering that recruitment and release operations could be delayed with Euro 2024 and Copa America 2024.

The delay in the release process is even more fatal. Tottenham are not a rich club. When the transfer fee budget is exhausted, the recruitment is underway by selling players to receive transfer fees and reinvest them. This is why the news of recruiting a striker was linked to Hishalisson's release. In other words, if the players are not organized, it is difficult to bring in the players that coach Postecoglou wants.

If recruitment and release are not carried out properly, Tottenham's plans for next season will inevitably be twisted. Postecoglou is trying to evolve Tottenham into a team that can challenge for the championship, not just fourth place. The starting point is, of course, the organization and reinforcement of the squad.

This is because Tottenham is still highly dependent on certain players. This is true just by looking at Tottenham's immediate decline since James Maddison and Mickey van der Penn were missing last season. Next season, he has to run until the European match, so the number of players coach Postecoglou can choose from should be wider. This is why recruitment is essential.

As the release, which should be made at the same time as the recruitment, has been delayed, Tottenham is lowering the set transfer fee to quickly clear up the players on the release list. It's hard to leave players like Reguilon. Reguilon was also controversial for his comments on the club and Postecoglou after leaving Brentford on loan last season.

At the time, Reguilon "I was very satisfied during the pre-season. Coach Postecoglou was also satisfied with me. 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 once revealed that he had been betrayed.
