The left-back is set to join Manchester United on loan for the season from Spurs
Marc Cucurella as a potential incoming to fulfil their left-back needs, again on a loan deal and he appears to have been their first-choice target before switching their attentions to Reguilon.However, this potential transfer was complicated by a couple of aspects.
Firstly, having played for Chelsea already this season, if Cucurella were to move to United and play, it would have meant he would not be able to represent a third team this campaign if he were to head back to Stamford Bridge at some point.United had wanted to insert a break clause in the deal for Cucurella so he could return to Chelsea in January, should Shaw and Malacia both be fit again by then, and talks broke down over the lack of this detail.
Crucially, unlike Cucurella, Reguilon has not played for Spurs yet this season, so if he does return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in January, he would be eligible to play for another team for the remainder of this campaign, either heading out on loan again or with a permanent transfer. The deal to take Reguilon to United also has no fee attached to it or obligation to buy the defender, while the Old Trafford club will cover his wages.
