Released Tottenham player now set to tee up Lionel Messi goals as announcement made
Sergio Reguilon struggled to make his mark at Tottenham, but he has now been given a fresh career path in Major League Soccer.
Reguilon was released by Tottenham in the summer, bringing an end to the full-back’s five-year spell on Spurs’ books.
The Spain international spent time out on loan with Atletico Madrid, Brentford and Manchester United during that period.
Reguilon was unable to earn himself a new deal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and has been without a club since departing.

However, Inter Miami confirmed on Monday that Reguilon has now joined them until the end of the 2027 season, with the option of a further year.
It means Reguilon will get the chance to provide ammunition for Lionel Messi next season, with the Argentina international staying on with the MLS Cup winners.
“It’s a very ambitious project, a winning club that is doing things the right way, and that’s what attracted me: coming here to keep winning and competing,” Reguilon said.
“My objective is to keep winning, go after the trophies we’re missing, and win everything here.“
Reguilon has also previously represented Real Madrid and Sevilla, and is still aged just 28.
Reguilon previously hit out at Ange Postecoglou
Speaking in 2024 after being loaned out to Brentford, Reguilon opened up on effectively being lied to by then-Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou.
“During pre-season I was very happy and he was happy with me, [as were] the staff,” Reguilon said.
“I was playing like a normal player, all the games. The week before, I went to see him. ‘You want me at the club?’, ‘Yes, I have to do a list and you are in my squad’.
“It was strange. The next day I was out of training and I didn’t know what happened.”
Reguilon returned to Spurs last season by barely got a look-in, having to settle for just a handful of appearances.
The defender now has a chance to kickstart his career abroad, and with age still very much on his side, he may well be back in the Premier League one day.
