Jase 43,479 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 On Reguilon... https://global.espn.com/football/soccer-transfers/story/4153115/chelsea-in-advanced-talks-with-real-madrids-reguilonchilwell-deal-stalls-sources Real Madrid left-back Sergio Reguilon is in talks to join Chelsea, with discussions already at an advanced stage, sources have told ESPN. The defender, 23, has attracted interest from a number of top European clubs after impressing in La Liga this season on loan at Sevilla. Chelsea's No. 1 left-back target this year has been Leicester's Ben Chilwell, but negotiations have proved difficult. Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Inter Milan had all made inquiries about Reguilon this summer, but multiple sources have told ESPN that Chelsea are now favourites to land him. Discussions are ongoing as to whether the deal would be a loan move or a purchase for a fee of around €25 million. The Real Madrid youth product broke into the first team in the 2018-19 season with Santiago Solari as coach, replacing the veteran Marcelo in the starting XI. When coach Zinedine Zidane requested the signing of Ferland Mendy from Lyon in the same position last summer, the decision was taken to send Reguilon to Sevilla on loan. He has emerged as one of the best full-backs in La Liga this year, becoming an undisputed starter under former Real Madrid boss Julen Lopetegui, and helping the team finish in the Champions League places. Sevilla were also keen to keep him, but sources have told ESPN the player prefers to test himself with a new challenge in the Premier League. Reguilon is now represented by Kia Joorabchian -- agent to Philippe Coutinho and Willian among others -- who is leading talks alongside Reguilon's long-term adviser Borja Couce. Frank Lampard has been keen to find a left-sided alternative to provide competition for Marcos Alonso, with Chilwell previously the leading candidate. Like Alonso, Reguilon is known for being a fiercely competitive character, as well as for his attacking instincts, pace and final ball.

Pizy 18,926 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Nice. Potentially getting a bargain there if true. Free's up money for Rice hopefully. killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 If it's a loan then it frees up cash, plus we get a really good player. Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,941 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Hopefully a loan with the option to buy. I don't want to see us lose a decent LB next season then struggle to find another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blu35_army 551 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 what a bargain if we're really pursuit Reguillon,,from the stats both of Reguillon and Chillwel didn't have much difference. this is truly upgrade Alonso on fast & better deffending version. and we have a good transfer relationship with Madrid too,,maybe just like Kovacic with loan and option to buy. the other fact,,Reguillon agent is Kia who handled Willian,,should be easy one to finish....

Still, there are stories about Jorgi and N'Golo moving on which would at least make room for him. Germany seems to be the place to go shopping at the moment. Denis Zakaria?

killer1257 3,282 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 [emoji4] Seems to be linked with everybody but us.We were already linked with him. According to Christian Falk, the most reliable German journalist, he is in our short list. I guess we rate Rice more than Zakaria because Rice is english and a leader Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk OhForAGreavsie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Should we get this and Havertz over the line, think we are 2 signings away from a proper title challenge. GK James----Tomori----CB----Reguilón Kante----Kovacic Ziyech------Havertz-----Pulisic Werner killer1257 and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,326 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Not sold on Regulion. Did not see him a lot but based on this videos you can find similar for Emerson for example. Can we have full backs like Liverpool with 15+ goals contribution per season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GK James----Tomori----CB----Reguilón Kante----Kovacic Ziyech------Havertz-----Pulisic Werner What makes you think that Tomori is ready as our starting CB? Lampard seems to have preferred Zouma, Rudiger, and Christensen ahead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
