Atletico Madrid have joined the race to sign Sergio Reguilon in the last few hours, with Tuttomercatoweb reporting that they have offered to take the left-back on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.

Reguilon is attracting plenty of interest before the final days of the window. Of course, it would be no surprise to see the Spain international leave before the deadline.

He has not featured for Antonio Conte’s side this season.

Reports claimed that Juventus want Reguilon while Nottingham Forest led the race for his signature. However, it appears that another contender has jumped to the front of the queue.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Atletico have joined the race in the last few hours. And they have asked to take the 25-year-old on loan.

The report adds that Atleti are ahead of Forest in the race. Reguilon would prefer to join Diego Simeone’s men. Meanwhile, Lazio are also admirers of the left-back.

Atletico would clearly be a fantastic move for Reguilon. It does appear that they may soon need another left-back, with speculation surrounding Renan Lodi’s future in the Spanish capital.

They can offer the ‘brilliant‘ defender Champions League football. And that could be particularly beneficial with the World Cup looming on the horizon.

He did spend 15 years on the books at Real Madrid. But it would appear that that is not putting off either Atletico or Reguilon, with both parties keen on doing a deal.

It will be very interesting to see if Atleti now manage to agree a loan deal for Reguilon at this late stage.
