Sergio Reguilon appeared to share a sarcastic message about his Spurs exile after Ange Postecoglou gave him seven minutes off the bench against Manchester United.
The Spanish outcast had not played once this season until he was brought on in the 91st minute of Tottenham's 4-3 Carabao Cup quarter-final win in north London.
After three loans out in the past couple of seasons, the left-back is clearly considered surplus to requirements and has only made the bench five times this campaign.
Thursday night was, in fact, his first appearance for Spurs since April 2022 after loans at Atletico Madrid, Manchester United (which the Red Devils cut short), and Brentford.
