Sergio Reguilon’s agent ‘working on Chelsea transfer’ but Arsenal, Atletico Madrid and Napoli also keen
SERGIO REGUILON’S agent is working on securing a summer move to Chelsea – but Arsenal, Atletico Madrid and Napoli are also keen, according to reports.
The Real Madrid star, 23, has been linked with a move away all summer.
Reguilon excelled in LaLiga last season while on loan at Sevilla.
But sitting behind Marcelo and Ferland Mendy in the pecking order at Madrid, the Spaniard’s chances of first-team football at the Bernabeu are slim.
And now his agent, Kia Joorabchian, is working hard to get him out of Madrid.
Joorabchian – of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano fame – is hoping to secure a move to big-spending Chelsea.
The Blues have already signed Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech, with Kai Havertz rumoured to be next.

But Frank Lampard will face competition after late interest from a host of European giants, including Arsenal.
Transfer expert Nicolo Schira tweeted the update, saying: “Kia Joorabchian is working to move Sergio Reguilon.
“Chelsea are really interested in him, but in the last days also Atletico Madrid, Napoli and Arsenal have asked info.”
Last week, Reguilon was asked what the future held for him – and he refused to rule out a move this summer.
He told Marca: “If my year at Sevilla had not been good, then this would not be happening… these teams would not ring.
