'Great player' Reguilon backed to succeed at Spurs by Monchi

Sergio Reguilon is a "great player", according to Sevilla sporting director Monchi, who has backed the talented full-back to succeed at Tottenham.

Spurs forked out £28 million ($36m) to sign Reguilon from Real Madrid, bringing to an end his 15-year association with the Spanish giants.

The Spaniard joined Real's youth set-up at the age of eight and graduated to the senior squad 12 years later, but was never able to nail down a regular place in the starting XI.

Reguilon made just 14 La Liga appearances for the Blancos in 2018-19, before being shipped out on loan to Sevilla the following season, which is where his talent really began to shine through.
