The Spaniard participated in 16 matches for the Bees in the previous campaign, securing four assists in the process across multiple competitions.<\/p>\n<p>The 27-year-old proved his worth on the left wing by averaging 2.8 tackles, 1.0 interceptions, 2.1 clearances, 0.8 shots, 1.3 key passes, 1.3 crosses and 0.8 dribbles per 90 minutes in the Premier League. However, he was a bit inaccurate when distributing the ball after completing 71.8% of his attempted passes in the English top flight (stats via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whoscored.com\/Players\/362275\/History\/Sergio-Reguil%C3%B3n\">whoscored<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>His current contract at his parent club Tottenham Hotspur will run out at the end of next season. Thus, Barca could potentially land him on a cut-price deal this month.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_311477\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-311477\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=2560%2C1707&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Barcelona\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?w=2560&#038;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&#038;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&#038;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&#038;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&#038;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=750%2C500&#038;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GettyImages-2145884056-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1140%2C760&#038;ssl=1 1140w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-311477\">BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND \u2013 APRIL 06: John McGinn of Aston Villa and Sergio Reguillon of Brentford in action during the Premier League match between Aston Villa and Brentford FC at Villa Park on April 06, 2024 in Birmingham, England.

He doesn\u2019t mind clearing the danger when needed and can deliver a few inviting crosses into the opponent\u2019s penalty area.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish talent can strike the ball with venom from long range and is a decent dribbler with the ball at his feet. He is primarily a left-back but can also fill in as a left-sided wide player if told to do so by his manager.<\/p>\n<p>We can expect Reguilon to bring more quality to <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2022\/11\/gavi-net-worth\/\">Barcelona<\/a> boss Hansi Flick\u2019s defence. He is good enough to serve as a good rotational piece in <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2022\/11\/raphinha-net-worth\/\">Barca<\/a>\u2018s squad next season. The Spain international might even help <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2022\/11\/gavi-girlfriend\/\">the Catalan club<\/a> compete across all fronts over the next few years.<\/p>\n<p>At 27, Reguilon has his peak years ahead of him which makes him a good option for <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/2022\/12\/why-barcelona-paid-for-lionel-messis-medical-expenses-when-he-was-13\/\">Barca<\/a> to pursue this summer. With all things considered, Flick should consider going for a player of the Spaniard\u2019s skill set and experience in this transfer period.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" alt=\"Abhinab Ghosh\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/953b138f11faa6a641e1291cb8d69017.jpg?ver=1723104820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/e1dd3148acd74635c3e5762de90c9e3d.jpg?ver=1723104820 2x\" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/author\/abhinab\/\">Abhinab Ghosh<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>A sports writer and an aspiring football coach who has road-tripped across the Scottish Highlands, but has never been to Wales.
