Inter Miami have been crowned MLS champions, but not everything is rosy as they had to say goodbye to two of their key players: Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba. However, the latter has already found a replacement.
Inter Miami have confirmed the arrival of Sergio Reguilon, former Real Madrid player, who becomes a new teammate of Leo Messi and in charge of covering the flank that will be left free after the retirement of the Spanish full-back.
Inter Miami announces another reinforcement for 2026
Inter Miami does not slow down and continues to strengthen with big names. The Florida club announced the signing of Spanish left-back Sergio Reguilon. At 28 years of age, the defender takes on one more challenge in his career by joining a championship team that revolves around Lionel Messi.
Reguilon signed a contract until December 2027, with the option to extend it until the end of 2028. His arrival has excited Miami fans, although it has also raised doubts because he has not played for several months after finishing his contract with Tottenham. However, Inter Miami is confident that he can recover the soccer level that led him to stay in European competitions for several seasons, to maintain the competitive level on the left flank.
Who is Sergio Reguilon?
A product of Real Madrid’s academy, Sergio Reguilon made 22 appearances for the first team before embarking on a journey through high-profile clubs. Sevilla, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, Manchester United and Brentford are all part of a career marked by talent and, at the same time, by inconsistency caused by injuries.
Despite these ups and downs, his offensive quality, speed and ability to get forward made him an attractive option for Inter Miami, who are looking for immediate solutions in defence without losing depth on the flank.
Sergio Reguilon motivated to reach Miami
Replacing Jordi Alba is no small task. Beyond occupying his position, Reguilon will have to adapt to a system that demands synchronisation with Leo Messi and a quick adaptation to the pace of MLS. The player himself highlighted the attractiveness of the project:
I’m happy to be here, I’m going to give it my all. I think it’s a club that is doing things very well, currently champion and that’s what attracts me: winning teams
With this signing, Inter Miami strengthens its commitment to European experience and maintains its ambition intact. For Sergio Reguilon, this represents a new opportunity to relaunch his career; for Leo Messi and company, the arrival of a proven full-back seeks to ensure competitive continuity in a team that is not satisfied and seeks to expand its dominance in MLS.
