On Friday, the soccer transfer market once again came to the eye-catching news, the La Liga giants Barcelona Football Club expressed strong interest in the English Premier League Tottenham Hotspur team's left back Sergio Reguilon. The news quickly attracted widespread attention in the soccer world, and the authoritative Spanish sports media "Daily Sport" also made an in-depth analysis and report.
Since the German manager Hans-Dieter Fricker officially took over Barcelona's marquee, he has expressed clear concerns about the team's wingback position. Frick knows that in the tactical system of modern soccer, the side backs are not only the first barrier of defense, but also an important initiator of the team's attack. He is eager for Barcelona to create two can be solid defense, but also can actively participate in the attack of the side back combination. Looking back at the past few seasons, Barcelona does have obvious shortcomings in the side back position, which also limits the team's overall performance to a certain extent.
Therefore, Frick instructed the club's management during the pre-season to keep a close eye on the side-back talents in the transfer market and strive to complete the necessary reinforcements before the start of the season. Considering the team's economic situation and the actual situation of the transfer market, Barcelona may choose to sell some of its existing players to raise funds. For example, players such as Valle and Faye possess a certain market value, and their departures are expected to bring the club a considerable amount of income. However, while striking a balance between income and expenditure, Barcelona needs to strengthen the side of the road and bring in at least one good defender who can partner with youngster Balde.
Among the many candidates, Regillon managed to pass Frick's initial screening due to his vast experience in La Liga and his adaptability to Barcelona's tactical system. Although the 27-year-old Spanish defender hasn't exactly lived up to expectations in recent seasons, he still impresses with his all-roundedness on the field and his play at crucial moments. What's more, Regillon's familiarity with La Liga will help him integrate into Barcelona's tactical system more quickly.
Both clubs are currently in active negotiations over the transfer. If the transfer fee can be agreed upon, then Regillon is expected to be an important attraction for Barcelona before the closing of the transfer window, adding a strong guarantee for the team's journey in the new season.
