Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Man United have been dealt a major blow in ir pursuit of signing Real Madrid star Sergio Reguilon this summer transfer window. It is reported that Los Blancos are keen on inserting a buy-back clause for Reguilon which will see defender return to Santiago Bernabeu whenever LaLiga giants want him back, and that is proving to be a stumbling block in negotiations between two European giants. Real Madrid have used this tactic to re-sign players before, most tably with Maria, Dani Carvajal and Alvaro Morata.
