Very happy with him so far. Very confident, which is half the battle sometimes.

Agreed - shades of 16/17 prime Walker and RoseJust shows that having fullbacks on top of their game can change a team from dull to dashing. We were lethal today and a lot of that lethality came from left and right back.
buy back after the season ends a Marcello goes?United have left themselves with a tub of lard as left back because they had a tizzy over a buy back clause that will likely never be activated. Shockingly run club. And a massive bonus for us. Could become one of the best left backs in the league.
Marcelo is under contract till July 2020, same time when Reguilon buy back expires IIRC. I don't think anyone would touch Marcelo so Reguilon should stay with us until then at least.buy back after the season ends a Marcello goes?

Presumably typo in your post re Marcelo contract expiring in July 2020.Marcelo is under contract till July 2020, same time when Reguilon buy back expires IIRC. I don't think anyone would touch Marcelo so Reguilon should stay with us until then at least.
Many things can happen in few year time. Reguilon may not want to return just to be a back up. Real Madrid needs his agreement to exercise the buy back clause. They can't just do it alone. Knowing Real Madrid politic, Zidane may prefer different player when it's Marcelo time to go; or Real Madrid doesn't have fund after spending on their new expensive toys. Who knows?

Even if they want to buy him back he has to agree first, which I personally doubtReal wont be buying him back as long as ZZ stays in charge if all the reports are to be believed. Certainly good news for us.

The stuff I've read suggests Real have a buy back clause for the first 2 years of Regui's contract, so until June 2022.
It seems Zidane has backed his senior players, Psycho Ramos who had a training ground spat with Regui, and Marcelo, plus his French boy Mendy at LB. In truth, Regui seems quite spiky too, so if he loves life at Spurs with Mourinho and our squad, he probably won't want to go back to Madrid whilst Zidane is in charge.
If Zidane gets sacked during that 2 year buy back window, then I'd say all bets are off with regard to what Regui decides to do.
My sense is that Levy agreed to the deal because Regui is a very good player, and if Madrid want him back then we make £10 million plus guaranteed profit. In addition it gives Sessegnon and Cirkin a season or two to develop and improve.
But ultimately I'm sure we all want Regui to stay long term.

Nope - he's Spurs - we paid for himI dunno, lets not even think about that just yet, he is a Madrid boy.
