The Athletic adds that Reguilon has completed his medical at Old Trafford.

It is suggested that the club will also have a “break clause” in the deal that can be triggered in January.

While remaining on the team, the Spaniard is most likely to replace Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, who are both injured.

Shaw’s current state may cause him to miss up to ten weeks of work.

Malacia, who has been out with an ailment since before the preseason, is remains out for the time being.

Reguilon, 26, signed a contract with Tottenham in 2020; however, after slipping through the ranks, he spent the previous campaign on loan at Atletico Madrid.

The move failed because he only made 11 LaLiga appearances for the team.

Rico Henry, a star for Brentford, has already been linked to a move by United to ease their left-back shortage.
