Spanish left-back Sergio Reguilón is closing in on a free transfer to Inter Miami, with talks said to be in the final stages. Softfootball earlier reported that the MLS club had indicated interest in signing the Spanish full-back. And now the 28-year-old, who left Tottenham Hotspur in July, has made it clear to his representatives that he only wants to join Inter Miami, despite receiving interest from several La Liga clubs and even a huge €4 million per season offer from Persepolis in Iran.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano confirmed that discussions are well advanced in a post made on his official X account, as Reguilón is eager to unite with former Barcelona icons Lionel Messi, and Luis Suárez. For him, the Miami project isn’t just about football — it’s about purpose, legacy, and a fresh start after some frustrating years in north London.

More on Sergio Reguilón and Inter Miami exclusive story revealed last week. Despite proposals from La Liga clubs and Iran side Persepolis offering salary close to €4m net per season… …Reguilón told his agent that he only wants Inter Miami. Talks are already advanced
During his five-season stint with Spurs, Reguilón made 73 appearances, contributing 2 goals and 10 assists. Known for his energy, overlapping runs, and relentless work ethic, the Spaniard’s defensive record has been mixed, with 87 goals conceded and 16 clean sheets in the Premier League. Still, his talent going forward has never been in doubt.
At Inter Miami, Reguilón is seen as the natural successor to Jordi Alba, who recently confirmed he’ll retire at the end of the 2025 MLS season. With Alba showing clear signs of wear and head coach Javier Mascherano short of left-back options Noah Allen often filling in Reguilón’s arrival would bring balance, pace, and European experience.
For the club, the signing fits a broader vision: building a competitive team ready for life beyond Messi. For Reguilón, it’s a chance to rediscover joy and rhythm in a league growing faster than most imagined. Sometimes, football isn’t just about the biggest pay cheque, it’s about the right project at the right time.
