Sergio Reguilón, speaking with El Transistor de Onda Cero and quoted in Mundo Deportivo, explained the circumstances in which he left Real Madrid for Tottenham Hotspur this closed season.
“I am not in Madrid for something that does not depend on me,” he said. “My conscience is clear, you cannot be frustrated by decisions that you do not make. I couldn’t talk to [Zinedine] Zidane “.
Born in Madrid, Reguilón joined Los Blancos at the age of eight, making his debut with his B team in 2015 before two assignments with Logroñés. He earned promotion to the first team in 2018, but spent last season on loan at Sevilla, where he earned a stellar reputation throughout European football.
Reguilón, a left-back in Julen Lopetegui’s team that won the Europa League, acted excellently as Jesús Navas of Sevilla’s left, earning a transfer to José Mourinho’s Spurs for a fee of close to 30 million euros last closed season.
However, it is clear that he could have been open to staying at the Santiago Bernabéu. There were rumors that Reguilón had a bad relationship with Zidane’s son, Luca. “I get along very well with Luca,” he replied. “I never had a problem with him. On the contrary, we get along very well and continue to maintain contact, it is absolutely false that I get on badly with him.
However, above all, the winger retains positive feelings about Madrid and Sevilla. “Real Madrid has given me everything and I will always have a very special affection for them. With Sevilla I won a great title, something that I will carry with me forever. They are a club that is in my heart ”.
Reguilón is currently out with the Spanish team. “I am usually with Sergio Ramos, Marcos Llorente, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Íñigo Martínez and Álvaro Morata, the tables are six for COVID. I feel more and more integrated here. The left-back position is very competitive in the national team, but that’s why I really appreciate being selected continuously. Getting here is difficult, but staying here is even harder. “
Luis Enrique’s Spain take on the Netherlands in a friendly ahead of crucial Nations League clashes with Switzerland and Germany. Reguilón has three games for Spain and will seek to make the left back position his own.
