Tottenham told to U-turn on Sergio Reguilon after source's update - Robinson
Paul Robinson has urged Tottenham not to sell Sergio Reguilon this summer.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the ex-White Hart Lane number one claimed it would cost as much money to replace the 25-year-old who is "a top player."
Reguilon has been in and out of the side since Antonio Conte' arrival in November.
A Spurs source told Football Insider (22 March) Conte has given the green light for the club to listen to offers for the left-back this summer.
The Lilywhites boss is understood to be unconvinced by the Spain international and wants a new wing-back to replace him.
Reguilon's contract runs until the summer of 2025.
When asked by Football Insider's Dylan Childs if Spurs would be making a mistake letting him go, Robinson said:
"If you are going to let him go, you are going to have to replace like for like.
"[Ryan] Sessegnon is a quality player but he's young and injury prone. They cannot let Reguilon go without replacing him, no way.
"It would seem senseless to let him go and then try and find somebody who is very similar.
"He is a top player. I do like him. It would be a shame to see him go because he has improved a lot under Conte. He's brilliant going forward and offers a lot more. It would be slightly naive to sell him I think."
