Manchester United are considering a U-turn on their Sergio Reguilon stance amid an impressive start to life at Old Trafford, according to reports. Reguilon has started three consecutive games since joining on a season-long loan from Tottenham Hotspur on transfer deadline day.<\/p>\n
Erik ten Hag recruited the 26-year-old as an emergency left-back after injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia worsened his early-season defensive woes.<\/p>\n
The latter pair’s continued absence has seen Reguilon play a prominent role, and he has left many fans surprised after his Tottenham career plunged into mediocrity under Antonio Conte.<\/p>\n
Reguilon was United’s best player on his debut – a 3-1 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion – and was also a constant attacking threat in the 4-3 loss at Bayern Munich in midweek.<\/p>\n
He also started Saturday’s 1-0 win over Burnley at Turf Moor before Ten Hag revealed that he had requested to play despite falling ill in the build-up to the crucial match.<\/p>\n
The Spaniard’s performances on the pitch and attitude off it have reportedly earned the plaudits of many figures behind the scenes.<\/p>\n
According to Spanish outlet AS, Reguilon is on the right track to securing a permanent transfer to United at the end of the season.<\/p>\n
The Red Devils No 15 is said to be winning over many members of the club’s hierarchy after arriving in M16 with limited expectations.<\/p>\n
