Sergio Reguilon and Bryan Gil were left behind in London having been left out of Tottenham Hotspur’s squad for their pre-season tour to Japan and South Korea.

Bryan Gil is surplus to requirements at Tottenham
In a statement on the official Spurs website, the club said Reguilon and Gil “have been granted permission not to travel in order to explore prospective transfer opportunities”.
Gil made only two Premier League starts last season, while Reguilon was loaned out to both Manchester United and Brentford over the course of the campaign.

Bryan Gil is in ‘advanced talks’ over Spurs exit
Football Insider have revealed that Gil is now in advanced talks with Girona about a potential return to Spain.
Tottenham are reported to be prepared to listen to offers for both a loan and a permanent deal, but would rather see him depart for good.
The 23-year-old is edging closer to a return to his homeland, which would end his disappointing stint at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Girona enjoyed a remarkable campaign last season which saw them finish in third place in La Liga above Atletico Madrid and securing Champions League qualification.
Gil joined Tottenham in the summer of 2021 for a £21.6m fee which also saw Erik Lamela head to Sevilla as part of the deal (The Sun).
Tottenham are due to face Vissel Kobe in Tokyo on Saturday before playing a K-League All Stars XI in Seoul on Wednesday and will round off their tour with a fixture against Bayern Munich on Saturday, August 3, which will also take place in Seoul.
SpursWeb Opinion
Hopefully, the advanced talks with Girona are based on a permanent transfer – there have been enough loan spells without mandatory purchase clauses which simply sees Gil lose value season after season.
He has no future at the club and cannot cut it in the Premier League, the sooner he is off the wage bill, the better.
