Not all the players Tottenham wanted to let go over the summer have left the club.
Sergio Reguilón, one of the players told very early on that he was to look for new employers, remains in North London.
And there is a slight of Tottenham’s attempts at moving the Spaniard on to be hampered by one of their local rivals.
Chelsea sending Ben Chilwell to Türkiye may stop Tottenham from offloading Sergio Reguilón
As reported by Football London, a move to Türkiye for Ben Chilwell may still happen despite the player set for return to training with the first-team Blues.
If a last-minute move were to happen, it would significantly affect Tottenham’s chances of offloading their own unwanted left-back, Sergio Reguilón, to the Süper Lig.
Both Chilwell and Reguilón have been told by their respective managers that they are surplus to requirements, with Türkiye the only high-profile option remaining for any player looking to revitalise his career.
When it comes to cutting losses, the Lilywhites are in a more desperate situation, with Reguilón’s £53k-per-week contract running out next summer. Chilwell, on the other hand, still has three years remaining on his £200k-per-week contract.
The Turkish transfer market slams shut on September 18.

Clearly, Chelsea are in a position to wait for another transfer window or two before they finally manage to offload Chilwell.
That the England international is returning to first-team training further hints towards the fact that the Blues are content having him on board for a while
