‘Once a red…’ – Man Utd fans convinced Spurs star still working for club after wiping out Brennan Johnson in training

SHOCKING scenes from Tottenham’s training ground have sparked a conspiracy theory among Manchester United fans.

United and Spurs are scheduled to lock horns in the Europa League final on May 21 with both desperate to win a trophy and earn a place in next season’s Champions League.

And the Red Devils faithful began playing mind games after a Tottenham training clip emerged on social media showing Ange Postecoglou’s men gearing up for the big match.

The short video went viral as it showed ex-Man Utd loanee Sergio Reguilon accidentally wiping out team-mate Brennan Johnson with a very clumsy sliding tackle.

Johnson, 23 – who counts 11 goals and five assists in 31 Premier League appearances – was in obvious pain after the misjudged challenge and needed some time to walk it off.

Thankfully for Spurs the Wales international was able to rejoin his team-mates a few seconds later.

And there was no indication of intent by Reguilon, 28, as it looked like he simply slipped.

However, that still didn’t stop United fans from taking to social media and joking that the full-back has remained loyal to the club ahead of the final.

One fan tweeted: “Once a red….”

Another commented: “Agent Regi.”

A third wrote: “My guy!”

This fan said: “United legend Sergio Reguilon.”

And that one joked: “Undercover agent for Man United since his loan move.”

Reguilon joined Tottenham in 2020 from Real Madrid but never really managed to settled down.

That led to loan stints at Atletico Madrid, Brentford and of course United.

The Spain international joined the Manchester giants on September 2023 as emergency cover at left-back following the injuries of Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.

However, Reguilon barely spent four months at Old Trafford and returned to Tottenham, who then offloaded him to Brentford just two weeks later.

The defender amassed a mere 12 appearances during his short time with United.

That is just seven more than the total number of appearances he has managed this season at Tottenham, where he has fallen out of favour under Postecoglou.
