Sergio Reguilon at Tottenham training ground for medical ahead of Real Madrid transfer

Sergio Reguilon is at Tottenham's training ground as the Real Madrid defender closes in on a move to the club.

The left-back arrived at Hotspur Way on Wednesday ahead of completing a medical which is expected to run into Thursday, with official confirmation likely coming before Spurs take the field in Bulgaria to face Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the Europa League in the evening.

Reguilon is expected to cost around £25million, with Tottenham agreeing to include a number of clauses in the deal.

Real Madrid will have the option to buy back the 23-year-old for around £36m within two years and meet any fee Spurs agree with another club.

Should the deal be finalised on Thursday, the club will be able to register Reguilon in time for Sunday's trip to Southampton.

The defender has played just once since lifting the Europa League trophy with Sevilla on August 21, completing the full 90 minutes as Spain beat Ukraine 4-0 in the Uefa Nations League on September 6.

Meanwhile, negotiations continue with Real Madrid over a move to bring Gareth Bale back to the club, a player Reguilon once called "his idol".
