Major League Soccer side Inter Miami are close to completing the signing of former Manchester United and Tottenham full-back Sergio Reguilon.

The six-cap Spain international is still just 28 years old but is looking for a new club after leaving Spurs at the end of last season.

The left-back joined Tottenham from Real Madrid in 2020 and featured regularly in his first two seasons at the club.

However, he fell out of contention and went on loan stints with Atletico Madrid, Manchester United and Brentford.

The Spaniard was back at Spurs last season, but made just six appearances in all competitions and was released at the end of the campaign.

The team, managed by Javier Mascherano, is in need of a new left-back after Jordi Alba announced his retirement is set for the end of the season.

The 36-year-old wrote on Instagram: ‘The time has come to close a truly meaningful chapter of my life.

‘I do so with complete conviction, with peace, and with happiness. I feel I’ve walked this path with every ounce of passion I had.

‘And now it’s the right moment to open a new chapter and close the previous one with the best possible feeling.

‘Thank you to all the fans for your kindness, you taught me that the shirt isn’t just worn, it’s felt. Today I close this chapter knowing I’ve given it my all, football has been and always will be an essential part of my life. Thanks football for everything.’

Another legendary player competing with Inter Miami, Sergio Busquets, is hanging up his boots at the end of the season as well.

On the prospect of becoming a coach, the Spanish midfielder said: ‘I think in the future, yes, but for now I’d rather take a sabbatical.

‘It’s a long time, with hardly any weekends. Like any footballer, obviously, playing for the national team and everything gives you another plus, but you also have less time.

‘You want to enjoy time with your family, time for me, for them, seeing my children, being with them, traveling more, watching football from a different perspective. And then, in the future, we’ll see.

‘In theory, yes, but let’s focus on the present, as there’s still a long way to go.’
