Over the past few hours, we’ve seen a shift in the reporting regarding the future of Sergio Reguilon, as the Tottenham player could leave the London club before the end of the transfer window.
A report from AS suggested the defender would be staying at Spurs despite the fact Antonio Conte doesn’t appear to have him in his plans going forward this season.
Despite this coming out, Fulham, Lazio and Atlético Madrid have all been linked since, with the latter making a move according to various reports in Italy.
One of those comes from Corriere dello Sport, who explain that Tottenham received an offer ‘yesterday morning’ via ‘agent Kia Joorabchian’, who put forward a ‘written proposal’ from Diego Simeone’s side for the left-back.
This came before Lazio called Fabio Paratici, after Maurizio Sarri finally convinced the Serie A club’s president, Claudio Lotito, that bringing in Reguilon would be a good idea.
When the phone rang and they ‘began to negotiate’, the scenario ‘had become complicated’ due to Atlético’s offer, because, after all, the defender is Spanish and hails from Madrid.
The La Liga side are seen as the ‘real danger’ to Lazio, and the belief is that if Lotito has not ‘rectified the situation overnight’, then Tottenham ‘could announce the move to Atlético Madrid’ very quickly.
