'Pay him up' - Ex-Spurs employee wants Tottenham to cancel contract of player not in Ange plans

Bryan King has urged Tottenham to agree a payoff fee with Sergio Reguilón to release the Spainaird from his contract in North London.

The ex-Spurs scout claims the 27-year-old is not in Ange Postecoglou’s first-team plans.

As per the club’s official website (22 July), Reguilón was left out of Spurs’ pre-season tour “to explore prospective transfer opportunities”.

However, the left-back is yet to find a new club, with the transfer window set to shut on Friday (30 August).

And King – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – believes more drastic measures might need to be taken.

“They need to either pay him up or sell him as quickly as possible,” King said.

“Reguilón is not in Postecoglou’s first-team plans, that is for sure. Therefore, it might be time to sit down and talk with the defender and his agent and come up with a deal if nobody is interested.

“What you don’t want is him sat around for a year doing nothing. If he has got anything about him, he won’t want to be sat around either, regardless of whether or not he is earning £100,000-per-week.

“He is still at an age where there is a future in the game for him. Get a deal done, and get playing.”

Tottenham to agree payoff fee with Sergio Reguilón?

Not much concrete interest has emerged in Reguilón. That will therefore come as a concern to Daniel Levy with such little time left in the transfer window.

Reguilón has no future at Tottenham, and with just one year left on his deal, the club need to find a solution.

They won’t want to pay big wages to a player who isn’t going to feature. As a result, agreeing a payoff – similar to the one which was agreed with Tanguy Ndombele – might be wise.

However, it will be down to the player if he wants to accept or not, with time running out for both parties.

In other Tottenham news, one player’s future at the club is hanging in the balance after an “incredible” turn of events.
