The 22-year-old has surprisingly established himself as first-choice left-back under Santiago Solari. So what do we know about the rookie full-back?

The left-back began the season as an obscure addition from the B team but has ousted the legendary Marcelo and is poised to start against Barcelona in the Clasico Copa semi-final on Wednesday.
“When he arrived we laughed at him because he seemed like a bit of a simpleton,” one of Reguilon’s former team-mates at UD Logrones told Marca.
